I don't really get how volunteering is effective for fighting cancer either, unless you're volunteering intensive medical care.

Yeah, but you don't get status likes or attention by donating or volunteering.

I'd like to see the error bars on that chart, I'm pretty sure the Facebook status change is just noise.

Yeah, fools you into thinking that you did something. Which is kind of worse then not doing anything.

Given that there's a goodly amount of evidence that most of the "gains" in cancer fighting over the past few decades are due not to pushing back the date of death, but pushing up the date of detection, there's some question as to whether any of these do anything.

By way of explanation:

The survival rates for cancer are listed in five- and ten-year rates. Basically, how many people are alive five or ten years after being diagnosed. Here's the problem:

If you're going to die on November 20th, 2016, and you're diagnosed tomorrow, you would not be counted as part of the five-year survival population. However, if you were diagnosed yesterday you would. We've got early detection down pat, but there's concern that all that does is give people longer to live with a diagnosis of cancer.

The sad reality is most of the money from donations goes to patents and copyrights of genes that help enlighten researchers on cancer & cover costs of usage of those genes, breast cancer... etc.

You forgot to add "prayer"....oh wait. I see it is there but it's an invisible bar.

That's not true. It helps clean up the tumorous mess that is my friend list.
