This claim about lab-grown meat causing cancer is similarly false. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2023/03/08/fact-check-false-claim-study-tied-cancer-gates-lab-grown-meat/11386197002/ https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-lab-meat-cancer-animal-cells-449786524119 https://www.dw.com/en/debunking-myths-about-lab-grown-meat/a-66963560 https://www.westernjournal.com/usda-decides-bill-gates-approved-fake-meat-cancer-tumors-totally-safe-eat/
