Are you wondering why no cure after millions of people studying, and researching cancer? Cancer's secret to fighting treatments...they are too damn adaptable or very efficient in acquiring genetic mutations at the expense of the host (diseased person). Thus, you find a treatment today...that same patient using that treatment tomorrow...cancer has adapted to make that treatment useless or not very effective. Simply, cancer has a mindboggling recovery ability in less than 24 hours. Yet, the bigger issue you must remember is that cancer research has discovered treatments (not cures) that help people survive longer and/or put the disease into a dormant stage. Info pulled from a well-known Cancer research website: In the 1970s only 25% of people with cancer would survive 10 years or more after their diagnosis. Today that figure is 50%. Another problem with Cancer, there are over 200 different types of Cancer. Worst, each type of Cancer has up to a dozen sub-variants that behave very differently than other sub-variants. Therefore, Cancer will never have a one-size-fits-all approach toward a "tailored therapy" that works for one person while not working at all for another person. All those research labs and trillions of dollars are not focused on one type of Cancer. Yet, it's still not enough to overcome Cancer's ability to adapt super fast in an individual's infected body. Thanks to mRNA, I wouldn't be shocked if a Cancer cure is discovered within the next 10 years. The question will be will it be a treatment that Cancer patients must take for the rest of their lives, what are the costs, or will it be a short-term treatment??? Further, what type of government will be in place to prevent Pharmaceutical & Drug companies from charging patients thousands of dollars or more for the Cancer cure??? wrbtrader
I seriously doubt any cure in 10 years. Cancer is big $$$$ like oil. They are not going to do away with that revenue. Billions of $$$$ in a few city blocks in Houston. Do we really think they are going to dispense with that by finding a cure? I will be 70 in a few months. It I live to be 90 or 100 and am able to drive I will still be driving a diesel 40ft motorhome and cancer will still be here. Too much money to lose by finding a cure by too many people…pharmaceuticals…doctors…oncologist….etc. it is an industry.
The onset of cancers is significantly influenced by various physiological and biological catalysts, such as genetic mutations, environmental factors, inflammation processes, and lifestyle variables. Each of these factors contributes to tumor initiation, development, and progression through intricate biological mechanisms. Since most cancer treatments do not address the sources of genetic mutations and inflammation processes that lead to cancer, nor the environmental factors and lifestyle variables also responsible, the best they can do is try to combat the end effects. Hence, cancer survival rates have generally improved over the years due to advancements in diagnosis and treatment. For example, the five-year relative survival rate has increased from 63.5% in 2000 to 71.3% in 2015, with further improvements noted in subsequent years, reaching 71.7% in 2016. The upward trend in survival rates highlights the effectiveness of new medical technologies and therapies. Historical analyses indicated that patients diagnosed with cancer in 2015 had a survival rate of approximately 71.3%, which reflects improved treatment options compared to earlier periods. Moreover, data from the World Health Organization and other health organizations corroborate that significant enhancements in cancer diagnosis and treatment have positively impacted survival rates over time. The advancements in cancer treatment have led to both better early detection and more effective therapies, contributing to reduced mortality rates. The mortality rate for cancer has consistently declined, with a 32% drop recorded from its peak in 1991 through to 2019. This reduction emphasizes the role of ongoing research, improved cancer care practices, and public health initiatives aimed at early detection. In summary, cancer survival rates have seen a considerable increase over the past few decades, reflecting significant advancements in treatment, but until doctors thoroughly understand the intricate biological mechanisms that stimulate tumor initiation, development, and progression in the first place and know how to reverse them, good luck with finding ultimate cures for the disease.
Don’t even bother, someone this weekend with a degree in police shit was lecturing a oncologist and researcher from the Bay Area(San Francisco) why cancer is cured and Big Pharma is hiding it. I thought the guy was drunk, nope, full blown Alex Jones.
Nearly $200B a year spent on treating cancer just in the U.S.. Big pharma doesn't want a cure for cancer. There should be studies done on ivermectin, fenbendazole, mebendazole, intravenous vit. C, apricot seeds, certain mushrooms, etc.... Unfortunately big pharma would likely find a way to corrupt any study. https://x.com/MakisMD
They are getting closer and closer to a cure. Right now, it's the discovery of treatments...not a cure. Treatments are where the money is at right now. Much more than a Cure. As you stated...too much money to lose by finding a cure. mRNA technique open the door to a lot of new research that's now being applied to Cancer Research. Researchers are doing things now to prevent Cancer from "adapting" that they weren't able to do before 10 years ago. Regardless, the timeline is related to how fast the research is evolving thanks to Artificial Intelligence (AI). Without AI, we're stuck. Thus, the game changer is AI. Yet, even without a cure...treatments are getting much better resulting in people living longer after being diagnosed with Cancer. wrbtrader
You are healthy, cancer free, count your blessing. We have come a long way actually. I am a cancer surviver because of research that found effective treatments for my type. Many other cancers can also be cured but lung, brain and pancreatic are still a death sentence. Lung cancer is a tough nut to crack, like stock charts, no two are exactly alike. If you read, you will find that it is heterogenous, there are countless different mutations and they are often countless combination of different cancer cells within the cancer. In my wife's lung cancer, I searched through all medical journals, research articles..., only found one patient with her particular mutation, an oncogene! That make treating it extremely challenging. It has no cure. Like day trading, there are perhaps some rules or general strategies that can be use as guides. One of which is using our body's own immune system to fight all of the variance. That is why mRNA has some promise and surprisingly why ivermectin may have benefit because it turns out ivermectin affects our body's immune system, just like mRNA vaccines. I made tons trading biotech options but would gladly give them up for a couple of years. Best wishes.
Can't argue with that, $$$ gives people incentive to find a treatment protocol. It is capitalism at work sir.
