Australian experts baffled by alarming rates of cancer in young people

Cancer in Australia news

A wave of early-onset cancers is affecting Australians in their 30s and 40s at unprecedented rates.

Australian state media reports a dramatic rise in early‑onset cancers among Australians aged 30–39 between 2000 and 2024, with alarming increases of:

  • 500% in prostate cancer
  • 200% in pancreatic cancer
  • 150% in liver cancer
  • 138% in uterine cancer
  • 85% in kidney cancer

The trend, mirrored in other countries, has baffled scientists, as most affected individuals lack genetic predispositions.

Experts suspect environmental exposures during childhood or even in utero—ranging from obesity, antibiotic use, and poor gut microbiomes to plastic chemicals and toxins—are altering gene expression and fueling cancer development.

Long-term studies like the ORIGINS project aim to unravel how these exposures interact with human biology over time.

  1. From the ABC article:
    “What’s changed?
    To get a better understanding, researchers say we need to look at the environment when people in their 30s and 40s today were children or in utero.
    That means the environment — or the exposome — between the 60s and 90s is crucial to understanding this puzzle.”

    We all know what changed!

  2. The jab yes is a factor, but so are all the other poisonous things the bureaucrats, experts and regulators and “science” also tell us are “safe and effective”, like junk food, fizzy drinks, wifi, 5g it’s all being allowed to cause harm just so big globalist companies and investors can make huge profits

  3. Yep, I’m absolutely baffled.

    Definitely not the miraculous safe and effective ‘operation warp speed’ covid MRNA ‘vaccines’ obviously. They went through almost two months of ‘rigorous testing’ before being injected into 5 billion people .

    Doh!

  4. I guess NZ health officials are too embarrassed to disclose similar cancer rate increases amongst those who got jabbed.

    • By some nice little statistical tricks, the authorities almost everywhere are creating databases that purport that somehow UNvexed people are the ones experiencing the higher rates of death and disease. Trick one is deeming everyone whose last jab was over a certain number of months ago, as “unvexed” – because it wanes and if you wanted to be really really vexed, you shoulda got your boosters. Trick two does not apply here – not entering anyone as vexed until 3 weeks after their 2nd Fizer jab “because it doesn’t work until then”. Obviously, it DOES apply to actual death during that period…. which is a separate issue, and possibly even more important.

  5. Being Borne into indebted slavery past WW1, drinking piosioned water, food, air, jabs, etc kinda adds up over time especially since Marce 2020, the Satantie ARMY works in not so much mysterious ways..

  6. My lovely Mum passed away recently. After the first Covid vax she had Thrombocytopenia.(a known side effect ) By the 4th dose (necessary through residing in a retirement village) she had myeloproliferative leukaemia. No history of immune issues.
    I will never, ever sit on the vaccine safe and effective side of the fence but live in hope that one day enough people come forward with their blood test results pre and post vaccination .
    This hope extends to a dream that we may collectively find a Medical professional with sufficient integrity and honesty who will conduct thorough research in determining what has gone so very wrong with this vaccine debacle and honour those who lost their lives taking vaccines under mandatory insistence.
    I will not give up in the search for answers. Our futures depend on it.

  7. I’m not able to put my finger on what would alter gene expression and fuel cancer growth, such a tough puzzle to fathom. Isn’t it ironic though that these increased cancer rates are being noticed and reported since 2021. In the aftermath of a life altering event for the planet. Baffling🤡
