Shouldn't cancer rates among humans increase drastically in the 21st century since we shower the entirety of the US in 2G/3G/4G? Cancer statistics year over year show a steady decline of new cases even with population growth increasing, I assume this would be different with the hysteria this paper is claiming.

Actually, there are increasing rates of cancer diagnoses, and even population wide increases in cancer deaths. However, the individual likelihood of cancer death is lower than ever before.

this is rigth on. if you get number of cancer deaths, then normalize the improvement of health overal, improvement in treatment efficiency, reduction of sun exposure, you will probably get a very step line increase wich will very likely correlate, or not, with new radiation emissions.

I don't believe they are this is from a study in 2015 written from Quora post in respects to a UK study.

I should have linked the US Nation Cancer Institute numbers

As you can see from the graph and numbers this is respects to year over year analysis from 1980's, so I differ they are not growing. Worldwide my opinion is the prognosis has been getting more accurate and with pre screenings are ability to detect cancer is better then ever.
