I disagree. My wife is alive today because a mammogram caught a stage 1 breast cancer, and she is among many thousands of similar cases. Of course, mammography is not a perfect tool, but until something better is available, it is the best choice.

If 2000 women are screened regularly for 10 years, one will benefit from the screening, as she will avoid dying from breast cancer.

Self exam doesn't help either. Even the United States Preventive Services Task Force has stated, "The USPSTF recommends against teaching breast self-examination (BSE)." Specifically they say, "The USPSTF recommends against the service. There is moderate or high certainty that the service has no net benefit or that the harms outweigh the benefits." and that we should, "Discourage the use of this service."

1. Nobody HAS to die from ANY cancer!! There are nearly 400 known NATURAL CURES for cancer!! Radiation and chemo are NOT on the list!! Most of them can be had by going to your grocery store!! Or, if you are a certain type of farmer, just going into your back yard and picking the cure from a tree or bush!
There's a "race" of people in Tibet,, I think, that live to be a very ripe old age in mostly perfect health and they NEVER get cancer!! The also don't have money!! They consider their wealth to be how many apricot seeds they have!! They eat them ALL the time and, because of this, NEVER get cancer!! How easy is THAT to keep everyone over here from getting it?? But, does "modern medicine" tell you anything about that? Of course not!!!! They're only interested in lining their pockets with your money!!
Check the internet, YouTube in particular. There's a PLETHORA of doctors out there that tout NOT using chemo & radiation because it's bad for you, it CAN kill you and it CAN GIVE you cancer!! Start out with a movie called, "Cancer: The Forbidden Cures", and you'll begin to see how doctors that CAN cure cancer are demonized and even put in jail for daring to keep conventional doctors from getting the money you might pay them for chemo & radiation!! Dr. Burszynski (sp?) HAS a proven cure, and has been in court numerous times BECAUSE he can cure cancer!! They want him to stop doing it!! How sick is that??? Vitamin B17 has been practically outlawed BECAUSE it cures cancer!! And they're going after Vitamin C, next for the same reason!!
There's NO reason ANYBODY HAS to suffer from cancer!!!! Even stage 4 can be cured in a matter of weeks/months!!
But, you disbelievers just go right ahead and do whatever you want. take that chemo & radiation, as opposed to some fruits, nuts, veggies and/or vitamins!!
