Total Obamacare crap , now they want our wives and daughters to die from cancer
I agree with the conclusion of the study, as I was overtreated because of suspected breast cancer when it wasn't cancer at all. More women die of heart disease than of breast cancer.
Tbone you lose credibility trying to lay this off on Obama and Obamacare, Reread this. The study, which was led by Dr. H. Gilbert Welch of Dartmouth Medical School and Dr. Archie Bleyer of St. Charles Health System and Oregon Health & Science University. Results are in Thursday’s New England Journal of Medicine.
Nobody want's someone to die you are speading fear sorta like the person who goes in a crouded theater and screams FIRE! And just so you know there's a lot of men who die of breast cancer as well, We refer to it as chest cancer. I also disagree with the findings. But I'm not a Dr. either I want more info before making a decision that could affect my life.
they plan to let anyone older and sick with anything die , thats Obamacare , no they do not need to cut back on mammograms, i have 3 sisters who have had breast cancer , 2 nieces and my wife , if it had not been found early they could have died from it , you skip your tests I,ll prod mine to to take them.
