Heart disease was almost unknown in 1900 beyond a pampered ้elite but now kills 40 per cent of men and 20 per cent of women in industrialized countries. Around 1 in 3 Americans currently contracts cancer compared with 1 in 27 in 1900. Lung-cancer rates in the industrialized world rose by 80 per cent in the 20 years after 1960, largely as a result of smoking; rates are now rising in the Majority World as the tobacco-smoking habit is exported there by Western transnationals7. - See more at: http://newint.org/features/1999/01/01/humandevelopment/#sthash.tS60tQSF.EtE3QcBj.dpuf

cancer percentage

1900/ 1in 27 is 3%, rounded to whole number


2000/ 1 in 3 is 33%

Thats an increase of 100% every year for a century, an increase of 1100%
