"Ceux qui fument du cannabis s’exposent au cancer des testicules"

Oh mon Dieu, c'est terrible! Regardons l'étude médicale en question pour savoir ce qu'il en retourne:

In meta-analyses, regular marijuana use was associated with development of testicular germ cell tumors, although the strength of evidence was low; evidence regarding other cancers was insufficient

Dans les méta-analyses, l'usage régulier de marijuana a été associé avec le développement de tumeurs touchant les cellules testiculaires, bien que la force de la preuve soit faible. Les preuves regardant les autres cancers sont insuffisantes.

Donc, l'étude n'a pas montré de lien entre cannabis, cancer des poumons, de la bouche, du cou et autres. Le seul lien l'a été avec le cancer des testicules, bien que le lien soit faible.
Que croyez vous que l'auteur de cet article mette en avant? Et ce comme si c'était une certitude?

Plus c'est pareil.



It's a God-awful small affair
To the girl with the mousy hair
But her mummy is yelling no
And her daddy has told her to go
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
Now she walks through her sunken dream
To the seat with the clearest view
And she's hooked to the silver screen
But the film is a saddening bore
For she's lived it ten times or more
She could spit in the eyes of fools
As they ask her to focus on
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Oh man, look at those cavemen go
It's the freakiest show
Take a look at the lawman
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh man, wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the best selling show
Is there life on Mars?

It's on America's tortured brow
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Now the workers have struck for fame
'Cause Lennon's on sale again
See the mice in their million hordes
From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
To my mother, my dog, and clowns
But the film is a saddening bore
'Cause I wrote it ten times or more
It's about to be writ again
As I ask you to focus on
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Oh man, look at those cavemen go
It's the freakiest show
Take a look at the lawman
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh man, wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the best selling show
Is there life on Mars?
