This article is absolute 100% bullshit.-Metastatic melanoma: used to be lethal, now 50% cure rate.[1]-Non small cell lung cancer: same, now around 25% [2, 4]-Breast cancer used to have a terrible prognisis, now 75% survive. [3]-Not to mention the myriad of blood cancers with new, strong, cell therapy treatment options with 40-50% durable cure rate.I don't know this person, but seriously, whoever he is, fuck you dude. Millions of us work day and night trying to improve care, and 99% of us arent getting rich.[1] https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1709684[2] https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1801946[3] https://www.breastcancer.org/research-news/201009304. https://investors.merck.com/news/press-release-details/2019/...
