Another conspiracy theorist.... it's true that the survival rate statistic can be misleading when cancers recur past five years and prove to be fatal but your line of reasoning is very dangerous. There have been immense strides made against cancer and early detection is extremely important in many cases. Look at some of the most common cancers: breast cancer, prostate cancer and skin cancer... yea most can be cured easily when caught early and fatal when caught late. And how can you say that the low survival rates in China don't matter? Even if the statistic is not perfect wouldn't that suggest that cancer treatments in China are lagging behind those in the rest of the world?
