By the numbers, Brain Cancer

"Hey please reply - I'm still curious why you are using general brain tumor and spinal tumor numbers for your estimates on GBM only DCVax-L."

I used the web link from Cancer.net for the US only not the UK.
https://www.cancer.net/cancer-types/brain-tumor/statistics

"Brain tumors account for 85% to 90% of all primary central nervous system (CNS) tumors. Worldwide, an estimated 308,102 people were diagnosed with a primary brain or spinal cord tumor in 2020."

As for the UK numbers (GBM cancer) I used the following link
https://www.thebraintumourcharity.org/get-involved/donate/why-choose-us/the-statistics-about-brain-tumours/

No mention of spinal tumors in this link.
