Cancer is #1
This probably isn’t a pissing contest to see who “wins first” hehe.
All bad.
Rather than being number 10 or one hundred, it’s better the general public words it about how many people per 100k, or some such measure. Otherwise people inly focus of “the top ##” rather than focusing on there might be 300 different health issues rare totally unacceptable and often avoidable. If we only see the top ten, the next top 990 don’t get the attention they deserve. In Taiwan, we have a lot of environmental illnesses (air, water, food, psychology amd etc) we should be far more worried about than we are currently. Cancer is bad, for sure. But the issue is why. Plus loads of cancer treatment isn’t covered by NHI, which is ironic given its mostly caused due to environmental issues that are normally regulated by the government. Nevermind the food aspect, people make dumb choices often. I drink beer socially. if liver is an issue, I know where to point that finger. Lung cancer is an undeniable one, amongst non smokers.
Yes, Taiwan has lots of lung cancer
