I stopped reading after seeing the cancer/hearth disease chart. It reinforces the belief that most deaths are caused by cancer, while actually it's hearth disease.
So if you make a chart, please make it accurate.
Therefore I couldn't trust the rest, since it might all be "drawn from the wrist".
If you unify all cancers into one category, then cancer is the top cause. If you split them up into the different types, then heart disease is bigger than any single of them. So you are wrong.
Can't edit any more but I got the heart disease number wrong, it's way more than 3 million (no idea where I got the 3 from). Not mentioned in the text of the first link but here it's observable as 9.4 million: https://www.who.int/gho/mortality_burden_disease/causes_deat...
So the two causes heart disease and cancer are mostly comparable in terms of number of people killed.
"Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally, and is responsible for an estimated 9.6 million deaths in 2018. Globally, about 1 in 6 deaths is due to cancer."
> So you are wrong.
Please be more careful in making this statement. The evidence you present should allow the reader to make their own decision.
> "Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally
Huh missed that, thanks for pointing it out!
I guess that this statement compares combined cancer types with the combined cardiovascular diseases [1]. Then, yes, cancer is #2. But the cardiovascular diseases can't really be summarized by "heart disease" because they include stuff like stroke as well.
Most people think you should prevent getting cancer (as I did before). But actually, you should put more emphasis on preventing hearth and artery disease, since it is the cause of more deaths! (I hope this last part is cleared out).
Plus, it is also more clear on how to prevent that, than how to prevent cancer.
So if you make a chart, please make it accurate.
Therefore I couldn't trust the rest, since it might all be "drawn from the wrist".
