BINGO. This is what I have been almost 100% sure was going on.

Not that I don't trust you, but I'm going to have to check your bingo card.

However, it's still not clear that these fungi play any role in the development or progression of cancer.

. . .

neither study can definitively say if fungi actually drive these poor outcomes or if aggressive cancers just create an environment where these fungi can easily grow.

It's interesting but a lot more work needs to be done

They should take a pair of samples from the same fungus infected tumor, then inject one of them with anti-fungals and put both on petri dish cultures to see which one grows the fastest.

Testing is outdated. We are just going to roll out another untested "vaccine".
