[QUOTE="Margonme, post: 1395857, member: 25776"] A cure and a treatment are not the same. If you think there will be a single vaccine to immunize the population against all forms of cancer, you are living with the elves. Cancer is complex. Most cancers originate as a result of some agent causing a permanant disruption of cellular physiology. It can be agents from smoking, the by-products of the chlorination of drinking water, inhaled solvents from doing auto body work or genetic predisposition. Even if you lived in a totally benign environment, you still may develop cancer. Once it starts, it is usually treated into remission. There will be cures for cancer but it will not be a single method that cures all cancers. Cancers are much too diverse. All cancer research is not productive. But it is an extreme exaggeration to say all cancer research has been a waste. [/QUOTE]
