Do you think Cancer will ever be cured?

[TheLastShadow]

Do u think there will ever be a cure for cancer? And if there is would it be affordiable to the public? In the future i think there will be..But i mean its so hard to find a cure..I once read up something that a doctor said and it said that Finding a cure to a sickness or disease is like finding one snowflake that will cure you in a blizzard..Unfortunatley..i think that once the cure is found..It will be hundreds of thousands of dollars..

Yeh nothing is impossible

Yes but the bad thing about Cures is that as more medicines are invented then the weaker the Human immune system becomes and if a Deadly disease came in the future it could easily kill us all.

Yeah but with cancer..if you have it..your chances at survival are slim.

I bet the cure comes from a tree we've totally exterminated..

Our immune system gets worst? I dont think so, I think you mean the disease will somehow in time mutate so it can affect us again...

And this is done by using the same antibiotics over a long period of time so the disease would mutate and become resistiant to the antibiotic so thats why new antibiotics need to be made.

It depends on what you mean by 'cure'. I dont think there will ever be some magic potion that you drink that will automatically heal you. I think there will be an extencive process that can will be found or made, but it probably wont work with every person and every case.

Well there already is some drugs out there which do help you is there not? That's why it's always on the news about people fighting to get the drugs on the NHS as they are like £30,000 and stuff.

I think eventually there will. Just think, all those years ago there wasn't any cures for any diseases in relation to the huge pharmacutical market available now.

Yes lol, drugs that only prevent the disease activity but doesnt kill it though...

I think there will be one day because medical science is developing fast and they already have drugs that help people with cancer
