An Instagram post claims breast cancer deaths in women younger than 45 spiked from 26,000 to 297,000 within two years because of COVID-19 vaccines. The claim wildly misstates what an American Cancer Society report shows.
It’s notable that the female breast cancer projections were categorized as 50 and younger in 2022 and 2023, but 45 and younger in prior years.
The age group expansion explains the increase in projected cases and deaths since 2021, said Michele Money-Carson, American Cancer Society national vice president of media relations. Siegel noted that 45% of reported breast cancer cases in women younger than 50 from 2018 to 2020 were in the 45 to 49 age group.said that breast cancer incidence rates in women younger than 50 have increased about 0.5% per year since the mid-2000s. The increase probably relates to more people being overweight and reproductive trends, such as women having children at a later age, the report said.
