The Liberals will tell you it is based on second hand smoke.
"The finding implies that the autoimmune disease may arise as an unintended consequence of the body’s own immune response to a developing cancer, which in certain patients will never become clinically evident."
It is not clear to me whether cancer rates have increased so much that now cancer is the leading cause of death in children, or that the other causes of death (such as infectious diseases and accidents) have decreased so much that cancer is now #1 (even if the cancer rate hasn't changed that much). Those two scenarios may lead to very different policies.
In any case, it is also positive to see that among children who get cancer, their survival rates have improved.
" National Cancer Institute statistics show that in the U.S. the combined, an overall five-year cancer survival rate for children under 19 with cancer has increased from 62 percent in the mid-1970s to 84 percent today. For the most common type of childhood cancer, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, the cure rate is now over 90 percent.
"We've made amazing progress on pediatric cancers in just one generation. It's the biggest success story in cancer right now,"

Is this hard or something? There will always be a disease in the #1 spot, and we've gotten really good at beating back the traditional, natural causes of child mortality. Thanks in no little part to - vaccines.

That's the problem, so many vaxxers believe in a movement started by a washed up Playboy bunny . . . whose son miraculously has been "cured" of autism.
