You won’t hear much more about this. Too much money in treating cancer and in researching eliminating cancer to actually eliminate it.

Next weeks news will describe the airplane crash that killed all of the researchers along with their research papers.

Too much money in treating cancer and in researching eliminating cancer to actually eliminate it.

I would say, "Cynical much?" except that you may just be (sadly) more right than wrong in your opinion.

If anyone found an effective cancer treatment that is universally effective for most cancers, they would be a celebrity beyond celebrities, and if they held a patent they would be so wealthy they could make Bill Gates their pool boy. Thus, there is absolutely no way a viable cancer therapy will be suppressed.

More to the point, with regards this particular post, is that there are always 'gee whiz', 'unbelievable', earth shattering discoveries that ultimately prove to be just another addition to the armamentarium against disease. Rarely is there ever anything that ultimately proves to be a miraculous cure.

You think Bill Gates will shrink from spending $1b on research for curing cancer and getting credit for it? The issue isn’t lack of funding - it’s scientists jumping the gun. They make broad claims before the evidence is completely in, so someone else also looking into this doesn’t steal their thunder. Months or years later, it turns out to be a cold fusion kind of mirage.

You’re forgetting something. Trump killed the deep state.

There’s also a monetary aspect to it you don’t hear much about. Making expansive claims is a way to get big money funding. How do you think global warming hysteria became a trillion dollar industry? Whether or not the claims of a cancer cure pan out is many years and many millions of dollars of grant funding away.

Either that or God doesn’t want us to have the cure to teach us a lesson.

That's a Marxist view of the world. In reality, many very successful industries have been made obsolete by new technologies. It's how the world really works.

A doctor I knew, who’s granddaughter died of cancer, told me over 15 years ago that they could cure all cancer but didn’t because of the reason you stated.

This world is full of evil greedy people.
