The above was a long way of saying they have been blaming "our genetics" for things as a result of gone-wrong cancer research. They got a new toy and they need to know what it does. No problem there.

But something as obviously important was still led astray, from human biases and the ways money gets spent on health. In all the wrong ways.

Fast Facts on Diabetes from the CDC
Diabetes
Total: 38.4 million people have diabetes (11.6% of the US population)
Diagnosed: 29.7 million people, including 29.4 million adults
Undiagnosed: 8.7 million people (22.8% of adults are undiagnosed)
Prediabetes
Total: 97.6 million people aged 18 years or older have prediabetes (38.0% of the adult US population)
65 years or older: 27.2 million people aged 65 years or older (48.8%) have prediabetes


At a time when endocrinologists have been channeled into something more akin to an app which won't recognize how sick we are.

From the numbers, genetics is meaningless. Not when half the senior population "must have the gene" because they aren't healthy.
