Well before its media talking points were released, it was assumed the World Health Organisation's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) would name the herbicide glyphosate a probable human carcinogen - in sharp contrast to findings by the EPA, the American Council on Science and Health and every legitimate science body.
How could that be? The short answer is that IARC does no original research, they review studies and their metric for inclusion, along with their metric for picking the panels that meet in secret to make their conclusions, are unknown.
Writing in The Guardian, Patrick van Zwanenberg quotes the Council: ¦ [IARC] started out with the conclusion they aimed at reaching, and then they evaluated the data they wanted to utilize to get to that conclusion and ignored or manipulated the rest.
That's absolutely correct. Of 900 monographs IARC has produced, only 1 has failed to be considered some kind of "carcinogen" - if they review a product, its guilt is predetermined.
