Forbes said that the missed diagnoses may show up as an increase in cancer deaths by 33% in the U.S. alone.&amp;quot; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The first sentence is a statement of fact. The second sentence is pure speculation.&lt;/p&gt;

You can have a &amp;quot;cancer&amp;quot; that resolves itself, but if you insist on regular testing, they&amp;#39;ll catch it before it disappears and then panic you into action, making tons of money. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As bad as the phony COVID-19 tests.&lt;/p&gt;

Do these publications read what they write? &amp;nbsp;Of course there would be lower cases. Nobody was getting tested for them.&lt;/p&gt;

I have also noticed  a trend among the most incompetent physicians.  They fail or offer a misdiagnosis that costs you a lot of time, money , unnecessary meds and wasted time during which you could have made progress on your recovery.  They like to refer you on to their equally incompetent buddies who will likely offer you another misdiagnosis or find nothing to diagnose.&lt;/p&gt;
