"In 1975, the incidence rate for all cancers combined in the United States was 400 new cases for every 100,000 people in the population; the mortality rate was 199 deaths for every 100,000 persons. "
"In 2007, the latest year for which we have updated statistics, the U.S. incidence rate for all cancers combined was 461 new cases diagnosed for every 100,000 people in the population; the mortality rate was 178 deaths for every 100,000 persons." |
nice how you leave out things that don't suit your agenda

Although the incidence rate in 2007 was higher than that in 1975, the increase is largely attributed to earlier diagnosis and aging of the population. This rate has been declining since 1992, when cancer incidence peaked at 510 new cases for every 100,000 people. Similarly, cancer death rates have been declining since 1991, when they peaked at 215 deaths for every 100,000 people.
