Smoking and Secondhand Smoke Linked to Breast Cancer

Smoking causes breast cancer. So does secondhand smoke. Those are the conclusions of an international panel of public health that poured over more than 100 recent studies in linkages. The panel found evidence that smoking could increase breast cancer risks by 40 to 50 percent in some cases. And in genetically susceptible women, the risk could be doubled.

A study in futility byLiberal Doses June 17, 2009 (1 votes) (report abuse) (reply)
Unfortunately, with the radical left's politicization of science, such as the inane notion of global(warming, cooling, climate change), studies can show whatever the people who are paying for them want them to show. Once the egg-heads started making bucks, driving Porches and dating hot blonds, science became a commodity and truth became a random variable easily excluded when necessary.

Peace

we're all gonna die eventually byMTMountainGirl June 18, 2009 (0 votes) (report abuse) (reply)
and I guess if there are those who wish to engage in suspect activities that might shorten their lifespan those who are pushing for nationalized/socialized/government funded whatever healthcare should be pretty happy....more who die prematurely mean less that cost money to cover them...kinda like telling the 65 year old, nah, that heart surgery isn't gonna be cost effective, ya know you are a smoker and you're old and geesh, why don't ya just go ahead and die....$$$$$
