My partner believes that they found the cure for aids but they make so much money with all the pills HIV+ people are taking
that they prefer to keep it that way... I just nod and walk away...

Yeah, I have a friend who justifies smoking by saying that there's a cure for lung cancer (Hash Oil) but it's not legal. I know
it's got some benefits... but still.

There's probably experimental treatments that exist but they're too expensive to be made profitable as general medicine for
the general population i.e aspirin, paracetamol etc. and are instead specialized medicine which is incredibly expensive and/or
experimental active anti-cancer agents that are just sat on due to lack of funding in research and development.

Also there's no "cure for cancer". Cancer is a large category of diseases.

The closest thing to a cure for cancer I can imagine is figuring out how to reconstruct the whole body relatively easily and at
any point in development, and that's basically unlocking immortality at the same time anyway. So yeah, I don't see that as
something the government's hiding away.

If such a cure existed, then billionaires would probably never die from cancer, and yet they do.

No they don't, have any proof of that? Of course they fake their own deaths to pull the strings from the shadows ;)

Some of you are a bit OTT. Tons of people believe these silly conspiracy theories, you can either cheerfully debate them or
just nod politely. My entire family believes lots of nonsense, I don't hate them, I just find it funny.

#59

It isn't like believing the cure for cancer is hidden by the government will hurt anyone. Save your anger for people not accepting
blood transfusions, or using pseudoscience medicine over seeing a medical professional etc.

What would be the benefit for them to keep it a secret??

Making it available for everyone would make them soooo much more money.

The conspiracy is usually in the form of "it's much more profitable to get somebody to pay for years of cancer treatment than it is
for a once off cure". Usually if somebody is peddling said cure, it's some kind of herb, supplement or dietary chance that they
want you to read their book about, for the low low price of 19.99, or 10 dollars on kindle. "Drug companies can't patent this
miracle cure, because it's all natural!"

I don't recall the exact details but I believe he attempted alternative treatments prior to getting conventional ones and it worsened
his condition.

Really though, even if we had the cure for cancer, it just means you're cured for that instance. Cancer is a mutation of the cells,
so unless we can prevent said mutation from occurring in the first place, the cancer can still come back. So you'd be cured again.

I find the herbal supplement market fascinating. Its customers seem to have this attitude that consumption of herbs can only be
positive. Harmless at worst and miracle cures at best.

"Fucking idiots" is a little harsh but it's more the latter than the former, but I'll ask a question in return.
Was it worth the emotional stress on your family relationships to escalate the discussion to an argument based in anger? It
doesn't make any real logical sense, but shitting on them and treating them like idiots isn't going to get you anywhere.
Instead of getting pissy, try to 1) understand that the sentiment is rooted in modern distrust of government and large corporations
and 2) make your points and if they don't buy it just move on. When you present an argument the wrong way your just as likely to
make the other party dig in no matter how sound your points are.

They should come to GAF and join the other conspiracy theorists.
And no there's no chance they're right.
Big pharma can do some sneaky shit but hiding a cure from the world isn't one.
And 'herbal' med is nonsense. The claims are ridiculous. Many drugs are based on natural products anyway.

Oh and there are so many types of cancer the chances of a cure is really really low. It's unlikely to have all cancers cured in our
life time. Maybe in the future it will be managed like diabetes.

Yup. His type of cancer was actually fairly treatable, but he spent so much time messing around with alternative medicine that by
the time he got actual help it had progressed too far.

My professor was researching designing nanomaterials for nanoscale devices that could be injected into the body and diagnose
cancers like pancreatic cancer. I helped him for some of the materials research. It's not really sci-fi anymore.

First of all, do you know what a vaccine is, and do you know what cancer is?
Secondly, cancer is a family of diseases. You cannot have a single cure for dozens of diseases.

There are two options:

#80

1) They have some very clean and very broad spectrum drug for cancer but don't distribute it for fear or losing cash income (not
very likely but possible)
2) They try to prevent people from finding the cure so that they can cash in on the victims by selling them their own drugs and
letting them pay for expensive therapies (very likely)

Just like every other disease on the planet. Each disease mutates ever so slightly inside every person when he/she is infected.

vaccine? Cancer isn't a germ, For one there are many forms of it, even of a single type of cancer. Furthermore, its when cells
do whats best for themselves instead of acting in unison with other cells, hence why they grow rapidly. Even if we found a
treatment or antioxidant that were able to stop and revert growth of cancer cells that say happened in the ovarys .... that doesnt
mean it will work in the pancreas or lungs.

Cancer can't really be vaccinated, its not a virus or outside disease invading your body. It's your own cells fucking up. The only
way that I could imagine fully curing cancer would be to have your whole genetic data backed up and have little nano bots going
through your body keeping your cells in check, and that's not going to happen any time soon. All we can really do is treat it and/or
nuke it with radiation.

Are you honestly that naive? Obviously the Big Pharma knows sacrifices have to be made in order for their plan to deceive us to
work. Steve Jobs' death was a necessity.
Jobs' unbelievable success is not a surprise either. Obviously it's the government's mind control at work as compensation for
making a deal not to treat him. "For our plan to work, we'll make you America's #1 guy but you'll have to die, deal?"
Not to mention Apple's technological breakthroughs with the iPhone are not a product of chance either. Hint: the spaceships the
government has captured utilize touch-screen tech.

You'd have to think that there are so many people working on cancer research that someone not under the secret cabal's

Each type of cancer differs from the other significantly, and even the same type of cancer in multiple people may respond
completely differently to various treatments. This is one of the reasons on-demand, individual DNA sequencing will be a huge leap

Are you serious?? Cancer will be the highest grossing killer along with bacteria that will ever face humanity. There is no where
humans have to go to expand. Can you image the devastation it would cause to the world such as wars, overpopulation, an even
more under resourced planet etc etc if people are allowed to live cancer free over others. I think you have drastically overlooked
how much it would effect the world. It would totally change humanity!

This is pretty much it. If there was a cure for all cancers, that dude of all people would have found it.
Most cancers are very "curable" if caught early enough. But once it spreads, it's much harder to treat.

The worst to consider is the point at which their beliefs could harm real individuals, until that i would just shrug it off as
clearly uneducated silly goosery. More interestingly, you could even take this as an example of America's fascination with the very
rich and its belief that life is immeasurably and unknowingly better at that class strata.
