Hopefully this is a major breakthrough and not a publicity stunt. Perhaps the same concept could be used on the HIV virus.
Both the National Cancer Institute and several pharmaceutical companies declined to pay for the research.
Makes you wonder.
There's more money to made with treatments, then there is with cures.
I saw an interesting news hit the other day. Evidently, an individual had HIV and it had progressed to AIDS. He also had a form of cancer (can't remember which). Well, it turns out, some folks are immune to AIDS. When they searched the donor banks, a perfect match came back from one of the Eastern Europe folks who is immune to AIDS (I don't think the donor knew it though).
At any rate, the irradiated his bone marrow and injected the new marrow. Well, the cancer goes away, like it should have, and so did his AIDS. Now he is both cancer and AIDS free.
This isn't a tall tale, it's reality. Until I read that journal, I had no idea that anyone was immune to AIDS or HIV. Very interesting that the cures may already be around, just in different folks genes.
I remember reading about that. I'd guess we are about 10 years out on many of these cures. I'd also like to see a cure for the cancer that kills nearly every dog that dies
