Nice! Sure beats the only one people have come up with so far, i.e. "Harry Potter Quidditch Player"

What I'd like to know is, why HIV specifically?
On paper it is actually quite easy to cure cancer with a virus. Cancer cells differ from healthy cells in that they lack a specific protein on the exterior of the cell that tells the cell to stop dividing when it is touching other cells. If we can manipulate a virus into attacking only cells without that protein then we can cure cancer. It seems to me that having a common cold or flu virus with this modification would work just fine. So why HIV?


HIV is a retrovirus that places genes into our DNA. The genes introduced into the white blood cells then cause the blood cells to produce proteins which kill the cancer cells.

1. Genetic engineering/manipulation "therapy" has had little success. 5 years ago they claimed gene therapy could cure melanoma in the American Journal of Science. It's addressed in this article here: Don't be deluded that this is the cancer breakthrough.
2. The Powers-that-be don't really want a cure to cancer. Antineoplastons show great promise as a cure. They're non-toxic and replicate natural occurring chemicals in the body that inhibit the abnormal enzymes that cause cancer. Antineoplastons are responsible for curing some of the most incurable forms of terminal cancer. Why have you never heard of it? Good question.

It takes an extremely ignorant leap of faith to believe big business or the government has your interests at heart. If the powers-that-be really wanted a cure then they wouldn't have been criminally suppressing Burzynski's discovery for 20+ years.
You seem to have a (re-occuring) reading comprehension problem. Where did I say it wasn't profitable to cure cancer? Where did I get into motives at all?

Burzynski’s discovery means that the foundation, the walls, and the roof of that house, need to be replaced. Think about it, we’ve got thousands of doctors in oncology, and in oncology residency programs, we’ve got the pharmaceutical industry pumping out chemotherapeutic agents every month. There are all kinds of machines that deliver radiation, we’ve got all this stuff in the war on cancer, and it’s trillions of dollars.
I find it very interesting that we have all these walks for the cure of cancer. We’ve got all the wristbands, we’ve got all the donations—”we’re going to find a cure in this decade.” All this money keeps pouring in—and it all goes to the same guys."
Any cure to cancer undermines a trillion dollar industry.

If you had cancer and all your doctor needs to do is prescribe some medication to you and you'll be fine, what happens to the entire oncology industry? From oncologists to companies that make expensive chemotherapy treatments, entire industries would cease to exist practically overnight.

Since corporations in the USA are required by law to maximise profits, isn't it fair to be a bit cynical and consider that those businesses that could be affected would want to protect their highly profitable corner of the market?

What I'd like to know is, why HIV specifically?

On paper it is actually quite easy to cure cancer with a virus. Cancer cells differ from healthy cells in that they lack a specific protein on the exterior of the cell that tells the cell to stop dividing when it is touching other cells. If we can manipulate a virus into attacking only cells without that protein then we can cure cancer. It seems to me that having a common cold or flu virus with this modification would work just fine. So why HIV?

How did @Peroxide manage to apparently quote @blankfist and @siftbot before they posted their comments? As of now, Peroxide's comment appears to have been made 2 hours 24 minutes 3 seconds ago, while bf's comment came 1 hour 48 minutes ago, and sifty's 18 minutes 21 seconds ago.


...uh... cuz he quoted the FIRST time they posted those comments, not the second time, or the third, or the fourth...

they use HIV viruses that have been "neutered" and will not infect you.

Also hundreds of studies and experiments show cannabis cures cancer but companies are truly not interested in cures they cannot patent. It is not a cynical viewpoint it is the truth. Even the pink ribbon organization has officially stated they do not wish to endorse or even mention a cure when asked about the studies that show that cannabis cures cancer. There is a cure that the AMA and american cancer society has acknowledged since the 1970's yet people continue to suffer through chemo and radiation therapy and continue to die simply because Nixon was so anti-cannabis and the corporations would loose money if people could be cheaply cured. I am the least cynical person you are likely to find, there is just tons of evidence I found and keep finding that is incredibly sad when it comes to this issue.

-Karl

ps. If you know about this stuff it is actually quite reassuring in a personal way since cancer, diabetes, nerve damage, etc. are successfully treated with cannabis but it is very sad to think of all the people suffering needlessly.
