Causes Of Cancer Explained By Dr Cox In Atin Texas
Dr Geo W Cox Texas state health officer dispels myths about cancer causes. He says chronic irritation from friction in moles or old scars can initiate cancer, while single bruises rarely cause cancer. He notes cancer is not contagious, nor linked to germs or aluminum vessels or electric refrigeration. Early diagnosis with x ray radium or surgery may save lives.
