This is a bogus study anyway. It compares the number of deaths to an “estimated” number of deaths that would have occurred without the procedure. Everyone should read the book Worried Sick by Nortin Hadler, MD. We are being conned by all these so-called preventive tests and procedures.
If nothing else, look up what relative risk is, because that is how most of these studies are reported.
“We are being conned by all these so-called preventive tests and procedures.”
As someone diagnosed with colon cancer via a colonoscopy, which otherwise would have metastasized through my body to my lungs, liver, bones, etc., I recommend you learn how important a colonoscopy is.
Colon cancer is the pretty much the only cancer that can be “nipped in the bud”. Getting a colonoscopy every 5 years will almost completely prevent polyps in the colon from turning cancerous.
I recommend you research this a bit more before you run your mouth about something you clearly have no knowledge of.
