Sorry to hear.

I'm so certain there are cures that people aren't getting access to.

Also, the bullshit treatment business is HUGE. As long as there's an illness some snake oil bastard will claim he's got a cure and bilks people out of millions. Even when he's caught the money ain't returned. It's stashed offshore somewhere.

So we end up having to keep an eye on the mainstream news sources for medical info which is another side of the coin.

What makes this article different is that it's referring to medicine that is created to target cancer cells specifically. That data has been around for years but with today's dna technologies when claims are made it's fast to track it down.

I've no doubt cancer will be vanquished within 10 years on the outside. It's like the oil crisis. Long as you keep it from those who need it you can make money off it.
