Government data from the United Kingdom has revealed that teenagers and young people in their 20s to 40s are dying from rapidly metastasizing and terminal cancers at "explosive" rates since the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) began.

The 45-page analysis was conducted by COVID-19 researcher and former Wall Street hedge fund manager Edward Dowd, whose report became a cause for concern among many oncologists, who cited it as a "sharp reversal of decades of mortality data" that showed a decrease in the number of people succumbing to cancer.

Dowd based his analysis on readily available government statistics from the U.K.'s Office for National Statistics.

To gather data for the report, Dowd and his research partners, who include a handful of high-level scientists, data analysts and financial experts, studied all International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, (ICD-10) codes for cause of death in the U.K. from 2010 to 2022. Dowd and the research team looked into trends in malignant neoplasms (C00 to C99 codes).
