Have we lost the war against cancer? With the failure of chemotherapy, is there another alternative to fighting cancer?
A new John Hopkins Medicine research study "proved" that the primary cause of cancer was bad luck. Is it, or are diet, environment or unhealthy habits part of this equation as well?
Not only are masks not being recycled, but their materials make them likely to persist and accumulate in the environment
