Cancer Rates Among Veterans

Rate this question


Peggy-KS

Question

McClatchy Investigators asked the VA for cancer information among the VA patients via FOIA request.

Now the VA says "Wrong Data" because cancer rates are skewed (elevated), you should use this data.

VA has a problem with numbers:

    How many homeless veterans?

    How many veteran suicides?

    How many veterans are waiting for care?

Welcome to Hadit!

Wow, I noticed the numbers tend to fluctuate a lot, but that's crazy. Looks like the Army beats everyone except for brain and skin cancer.
