Japan’s Surgeons Go Extinct, Cancer Treatment Needs Group Hug

Japan’s health ministry panel just dropped the ultimate medical mic drop: consolidate cancer surgeries and radiotherapies because, brace yourself, the number of surgeons is literally dwindling. The panel cited the "dwindling number of surgeons in Japan" as the main reason, effectively turning hospitals into the world's most morbid group projects. It’s like the medical version of 'Survivor,' where surgeons are voted off the island by sheer burnout and scarcity. Looks like cancer care in Japan might get more efficient or just really crowded—either way, bring your patience and your popcorn.
