I might have gotten cancer in the time to read all that.
To sum up, big pharmaceutical won't invest because they can't patent it. Where is all the money from the walk/runs for cancer going? This seems like a hopeful trial. Are there lots of cases like this all claiming some miracle cure?

And then we'll have to find something to kill it after it killed all the cancers.

It will take a special kind of cancer to kill the killer virus.

After reading something this amazing , i am sadden that it is not procceding towards testing on humans when so many are effected by this Cancer.

They should test this on dangerous criminals if they ever get to that point.

A cure for cancer was found by some researchers at a Canadian university a number of years back, and it also never really saw the light of day. It was even tested years later (very recently) and found to be working properly.

Why these things don't get more funding to be worked on and pushed through to help save millions of lives? No idea.

Probably because in all honesty, the last thing we really need is more old people living, costing us more money. I hate to sound like an asshole, but the amount of money we spend (because they can't afford it) on elderly people every year to keep them alive for a few months longer at a time is absolutely ridiculously expensive. We either need to learn when to pull the plug and stop providing free care to these old people or we need to hurry up and figure out how to make ourselves immortal beings.

Problem with doing the latter is we'll either overpopulate too quickly, or we won't have kids and new life will hardly ever see the world.

There won't be a problem. I'll volunteer to explore the space.

In the not too distant future nanotechnology will be able to keep us free of all disease. 

This has been known for a while and been discussed in depth in my genetics, cancer bio and cell culture classes. The problem with using a virus to kill cancer is that it needs to be genetically engineered to be highly lethal upon infection and have a very high transfer rate. This is because cancer cells divide very quickly and the virus need to be able to keep up.

The problem arises in that viruses are prone to mutations. If such a deadly virus was to mutate so that it no longer only targeted cancer cells, then you would have a highly contagious and deadly virus out in the wild. It could lead to the greatest plague mankind has ever known.

Your right we should let let these old timers die or better yet kill them. Only the wealthy people like the fat auss who thinks the working-class deserves to be payed $2/hour the corrupted politicians and a few war-lords deserves to have longevity.

I'm sorry to say this but you sir is an a*****
