Sensationalist for sure, but I can see the logic.
Cancer treatment is improving all the time and bugs are becoming more immune to antibiotics.
There will come a point when cancer deaths drop below the increasing rate of deaths from super bugs in hospitals.
Whether it's the right time frame or not is another matter.
