Report warns cancer cases set to rise nearly 50% by 2044

Cancer Control Agency warns nearly 50% increase in NZ cancers by 2044

The Cancer Control Agency (CCA) has released ‘The State of Cancer in New Zealand 2025’, providing the most up-to-date overview of how the country is tracking across prevention, detection and treatment.

The report, published on Thursday, shows New Zealand has made “encouraging progress” over the past five years, with rising survival rates, declining smoking across all ethnicities, and more effective national screening programmes.

Chief executive Rami Rahal said the findings reflect important gains but warned the system faces mounting pressure. The number of people diagnosed with cancer each year is expected to climb from over 30,000 in 2025 to more than 45,000 by 2044.

“We cannot respond to this big increase in demand by doing more of the same. We need new and innovative ways of delivering care and preventing cancers,” he said.

The report notes that up to half of all cancers could be prevented through eliminating tobacco use, reducing alcohol consumption, improving nutrition and physical activity, and strengthening sun-protection and infection-prevention measures.

Increasing screening participation remains one of the most effective ways to improve outcomes, with early detection strongly linked to higher survival rates. CCA is now working with the sector to refresh the New Zealand Cancer Action Plan for 2019–2029, with an updated version expected in February.

‘Increasing participation in screening is a proven way to not only finding cancers early, but in some cases, preventing cancer from starting. The earlier a person’s cancer is detected and treated, the better the outcomes for them,’ said Rahal.

‘To support continued progress, we are working with the sector to refresh the actions in the New Zealand Cancer Action Plan 2019–2029, ensuring it reflects the latest evidence and prepares the system to manage the rising number of cancer cases while maintaining the highest quality of care.’

The full report is available on the CCA website.

  1. And people are ready to vote for Labour again🤷‍♂️
    We don’t make any new mistakes
    We just keep making the same ones over and over again
    The ole Kiwi sure does have a short memory span
    When it comes to putting food on the table
    In the meantime all the criminality associated with the covid plandemic scamdemic is suppressed glossed over and covered up
    And the truth obfuscated by the same main protagonists who sold Us the lie in the first place
    The result being nobody is held accountable

  2. .. improving nutrition…yeah right.
    Was at a swimming spot at the river last weekend. It was an eyeopener.
    The only physical activity were a few kids jumping off a bridge. The rest of the whanau were slugging down fizzy drinks and chips. The were fat like walrusses, hardly able to get up off the ground.
    Funny enough I ran into them later in the supermarket. Two trolleys full of junk food.
    I sometimes wonder how people survive.
    I wonder if people still cook.

    • Correct. We all know why there’s a massive escalation of cancer cases and the hospitals are overflowing with sick people but the perpetrators of this enormous crime on humanity are still walking free. Will justice ever come for these swines?

  3. Since the introduction of covid vaccines. Compared to pre pandemic. There is to this day, a sustained 15% increase in all cause death rates in Aotearoa.
    Spike in death rates occured in 2022 with covid in community. Though with all those elderly having died, who can’t die twice. The death rates have remained elevated.

    I say, bring back Jacinda, recharged to fix this?

  4. And guess what people? On Newsmax tv, mainstream news in the US, my sister rang and told me that doctors there are saying you have a 40% increase in chance of cancer developing if you had either the Pfizer or the Moderna vaccines… and yet here in NZ nothing, nadda out of our government, not a damn single warning,,,, they are still pushing the flu and the covid jabs together…at our rural 4 Square in their parking lot about a month ago, there were 2 flags flying, one said FLU Jab and the other said Covid Jabs… still trying to kill us off one way or the other eh….

  5. Of course it’s got nothing to do with the intentional poisoning of our sky, water, soil and food sources, by the powers that ought not be, not to mention bodies with poisons from the industrial pharmaceutical complex. By the way nicotine is a nutrient. It’s the deliberately added harmful chemicals added to the tobacco that causes toxic issues.

  6. Yep quietly stand behind the cluelessly clueless modern-day brainwashed victims
    at the supermarket checkout and observe their conveyor-belt of secretive poisonous big-corporate
    chemical crap slowly and inexorably grinding forward into the trolleys…

  7. The genetic experiment known as vaccination is definitely causing an increase in cancer cases.
    Contamination with glyphosate, weather manipulation and toxic additives in water and food are also contributing to more diseases.
    In New Zealand, this is being pushed even harder than in other countries.
    Smoking and alcohol certainly do not contribute to good health, but in my opinion, they are not the reason.
    This is said to make people feel guilty. (It’s your own fault).
    It distracts from the real reasons, and most people believe it.

  8. Check out the ongoing research into Ivermectin as a viable cancer treatment. Just don’t expect medical ‘experts’ to have an open mind however as we saw during Covid. Big Pharma and surgeons can’t make any money if an off patent medicine cures cancer.

  9. Hmm, Cancers in NZ and elsewhere, starting appearing in March 2020, NZ Crime Sinister Ardern can answer any questions about the rise in cancers, remember she said to listen only to her Government, now where is she?
    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15329799/urgent-health-warning-festive-season.html Amazingly, the Aussie Satanite Army is still the Covid Boosters.. These pushers are sub human, hell bound. Goodbye..

  10. Yep, vaccine induced cancers, plus God knows what GMO is doing to people,. we have seen what it can do to other animals and now the evil Gene Tech Bill to finish us off.

    The majority of asleep dim wits, will go on voting mainstream, so you can expect little to change.

    Take my advice and leave, while you can. Oh and for the clowns who say “oh but everywhere is like this”. Not its not. NZ is a “really” bad example of rampant, unchecked globalism. So stop being lazy and do some research, plenty of decent places to go, to suit you and your budget.

    • Yes there are plenty of places to get away from New Zealand, however if like me you rely on NZ Super there are some things to take into consideration. When I retired and moved to Thailand 10 years ago the exchange rate was 25 Thai baht for one NZ dollar. Today the exchange rate is 18.4 Thai baht for one dollar. Thankfully I didn’t have to go through the Ardern, Hipkins , Robinson crazed response to Covid but that exchange rate shows just how badly they screwed the economy.

  11. Does anyone recall the “Single Source of Truth” indicating that at stage of biblical “proclamation of said irrefutable truths” that insufficient data exist on side effects/ secondary symptoms of the forces RNA Gene Therapy?

    Did anyone here have the Informed Consent documents that stated words to the effect:

    Unknown side effects, take at own risk?

  12. Cancer rates will go to 80%…here’s why-

    Deagle 2025 Forecast
    Published :August 20, 2021•Updated :December 29, 2023

    “The Deagel corporation is a minor branch of US military intelligence, one of the many secretive organizations which collects data for high-level decision-making purposes and prepares confidential briefing documents for agencies like the National Security Agency, the United Nations, and the World Bank.

    It is known, for example, to have contributed to a Stratfor report on North Korea. With this kind of pedigree, Deagel should be seen as a legitimate player in the intelligence community and not merely a disinformation asset.

    If so, then it must be assumed that its population predictions for 2025, as well as its industrial output predictions on a nation-by-nation basis, are based on strategic assumptions which are shared and well understood by other players in the intelligence community.”

    I think that the Deagel 2025 Forecast figures are based on an assumption, or perhaps knowledge, that there is a storm coming – the confluence of genocide, manufactured chaos, and anticipated earth changes.

    Deagel.com’s [infamous] 2025 forecast was removed from their website sometime in 2020. The content is reproduced here for reference and educational purposes.

    Throw-in cancer-causing 5G & 6G microwave radiation, ‘smart meters’, and a flood of EMF fog w/ weaponised food, and we’re on our way OUT!
