Town Hall Critique of DOH Health Study

Are Warren County’s Highest-in-the-State Cancer Rates Caused by Lifestyle? We don’t think so.

On Wed., Feb. 24 at 6:30 pm. 
CAAN presented a critique of the NYS Dept. of Health’s
Cancer Study, which incorrectly blames Warren County’s elevated
cancer rates on unhealthy behavior (smoking, binge
drinking, lack of exercise, and obesity). Our experts found
no basis for this conclusion, and question why environmental
carcinogens were overlooked.

economics at Green Mountain College,

sciences at the University at Albany.
