Cancer is a horrible diagnosis to receive at any age, but there has been a
00:04
rise in the rate of cancers among young adults uncovered by a recent study and
00:08
scientists are trying to pinpoint why. Cancer cases among young people across
00:13
the world have grown by 79 percent. According to Sky News, the team behind
00:17
the study analyzed data from the Global Burden of Disease 2019 study for 29
00:23
cancers in 204 countries and regions. Scientists estimated the increase in
00:28
rates for those aged under 50 between 1990 and 2019. Experts say given trends
00:35
over the past three decades, new early onset cancer cases will increase an
00:39
additional 31 percent by 2030. Forbes notes that many factors influence the
00:45
risk of getting cancer, including genetic predispositions, exposure to certain
00:49
viruses and environmental factors like pollutants, diet, exercise and the use of
00:54
drugs like alcohol and tobacco. Researchers say there is no single
00:58
explanation for the rise in early onset cancers over the past three decades.
