                  Another Headline: Spotting Alzheimer’s Early Could Save America $7.9 Trillion. “A
                  new report says the cost of care will increase by $20 billion in just one year. While there’s
                  no cure, quicker diagnosis might lower the price tag. Alzheimer’s disease is among the
                  most expensive illnesses in the U.S. There’s no cure, no effective treatment and no easy
                  fix for the skyrocketing financial cost of caring for an aging population.” No doubt, the
                  medical mafia do not have a cure. However, there is much that modern medicine could
                  do if it were not dominated by a rottenness at its core.

                                             Death and Harm by Oncology

                  The headlines read, “Cancer survivors age faster and are far more likely to die sooner,”
                  if they have been treated by oncologists, a major study has shown. A review, published
                  in ESMO Open, the journal of the European Society of Medical Oncology, into more than
                  1,200 published articles, found that  the average life expectancy of  childhood cancer
                  survivors is 30 per cent lower than the general population.

                  In general, cancer survivors are more likely to develop long term conditions, such as heart
                  problems, lung scarring, secondary cancers and frailty. They will also get age-associated
                  illnesses sooner than the general population, the analysis suggests.

                  Drugs called anthracyclines are a staple of breast cancer chemo despite the well-known
                  risk: They weaken women’s hearts. “In the process of curing their breast cancer, we’ve
                  exposed them to some pretty nasty things. And it’s not just one nasty thing, it’s a sequence
                  of nasty things,” explains Dr. Pamela Douglas, a Duke University cardiologist.
