Original Note:
1. Extensive study shows no evidence biopsies spread cancer, but doctors take extra precautions anyway. 2. The spontaneous remission described here is possible, but extremely rare. Most will die if cancer left untreated. 3. It's not true that everyone gets cancer. https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-researchers-find-cancer-biopsies-do-not-promote-cancer-spread/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8271173/ https://www.healthline.com/health/does-everyone-have-cancer-cells
