Yes. Melanoma is not the most common cancer in Australia but the others appear later. So when you restrict the picture to under-50s you get high peaks in Australia but also N Europe. Data from the IARC Global Cancer Observatory gco.iarc.who.int/en

At the RSS conference in Edinburgh where @firthstat.bsky.social is presenting his new tetraplots for displaying 4-way results in UK elections. Wooden tetrahedron by @warwickstats.bsky.social woodworker-in-residence Nick Tawn.
David Firth holding a wooden tetrahedron in front of a poster displaying his new tetraplots. The proportion of votes for each of four parties is a point inside the volume of a tetrahedron, which is then projected onto the nearest surface and the tetrahedron is unfolded to make a flat display.
