Question: Do you believe that scientists have found cures to some cancers but are keeping these cures back from public knowledge so they can continue to gain from the profits of current cancer treatments (which may not work well)?

I have given this some thought in the past. I was quite skeptical about it too. I ended up asking people for it and they pointed out some other “cures” that don’t work (even though they are convinced that they do).

If you think about it though you will see that if a cure comes out any pharmaceutical company will want to have it because it will get all the money (which is all that matters) from the patients. Given the number of patients they won’t lose any of the profit if a cure is found.
Currently there are people dying and this is a way to lose money. There are also people who are not accepting treatment because they don’t believe in it or because there isn’t anything that can help them. So a pill or a treatment that works would actually be something that every company will go for. There are many conspiracy theories out there for cures that are kept a secret but unfortunately they are not true
