A study from Japan suggests a potential link between mRNA COVID-19 vaccines and increased cancer mortality. Researchers observed a statistically significant increase in age-adjusted mortality rates for all cancers and specific cancers, including ovarian, leukemia, prostate, lip oropharyngeal, pancreatic, and breast cancers in 2022. This increase occurred after two-thirds of the Japanese population received a third or later dose of mRNA vaccines.
The researchers state the increased mortality is not due to COVID-19 infection itself or reduced cancer care during lockdowns, but potentially an effect of the vaccine. The study notes that several case reports have described cancer developing or worsening after vaccination, discussing possible causal links between cancer and mRNA vaccines. The data reflects deaths from cancer, not necessarily new cases, potentially representing aggressive forms of cancer. Graphs were shown indicating excess mortality for breast, pancreatic, lip oropharyngeal, prostate, leukemia, ovarian, and all cancers.
