We need to define our terms more precisely. My personal opinion has been that there will not be either an IMMUNIZATION against a person’s contracting cancer; nor a CURE for cancer. Not as much for political reasons as financial ones.

Cancer care is a huge INDUSTRY, funded by tons of money. I can’t see that industry intentionally eliminating the necessity for its own existence, any more than the DemocRAT Party would knowingly off THEMselves. Ditto, the enormous Heart Disease Industry.

I would be deleriously joyful to be proven mistaken about that; by seeing both a CURE for existing cancers; and an IMMUNIZATION against new cases, coming into our lives.

Just a clarification; the immunization Biden is referring to is taking immune cells from someone who already has cancer, finding those immune cells that are directed against the cancer, amplifying them thousands of times and re-infusing them. Works like a miracle is some cancers. (by the way, we always produce immune cells against our cancers, just not enough of them because the cancer “looks” like self)
He was not talking about immunizing us against all or even some cancers like a flu shot.
