Subject: I have seen some TV ads about certain women cancers being caused by a virus. If that is possible, wonder how many more cancers are caused by a virus or bacteria infection, etc? They should be studying something like that more then the above. I think the biggest factor causing heart disease, stroke, cancer, etc... is the fact that not many centuries ago the average life span for a human was 35 years old. So maybe we are all living on borrowed time as it is.
In reply to: Varmit 's message, "Just so you know Hap... I am not trying to argue with you on this.... just curious about a few things stated.... they said...."During those 10 years, 202 people had a heart attack. Just over 10 percent (23) of those heart attacks occurred in people who were jobless after being laid off. In addition, 140 people suffered a stroke. Close to 24 percent (33) of those strokes occurred among the jobless, and 9 percent (13) occurred just after the person lost his or her job, the researchers found.".... So does that mean that 90% of those still working of the 202 had heart attacks while having a job and 75% of the 140 of those still working had strokes?" on 18:16:24 06/22/06 Thu
