Yauch cancer all-clear reports jumped the gun
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 10 January 2011
Beastie Boy Adam Yauch has issued a statement regarding his current condition following those reports last week that doctors had given him the all-clear regarding his recent cancer. He says that while his treatment is going well, the “all-clear” reports were exaggerated.
Says Yauch: “While I’m grateful for all the positive energy people are sending my way, reports of my being totally cancer free are exaggerated. I’m continuing treatment, staying optimistic and hoping to be cancer free in the near future”.
As previously reported, the Beastie Boys will release a new album this spring, though promotional and touring activity is tbc depending on Yauch’s health.
