Fucking moron thinks anything to do with cancer would be fixed by a vaccine should probably not advertise his idiocy on the internet.

Sadly, some of us that have Family Members afflicted by Cancer...
Think that Cancer is something that the AMA plagues the citizenry of this Country with....for profit...
Think I'm in "tinfoil hat" mode?
Look up the percentage of BENZENE the FDA allows in PLASTIC BOTTLES of COLA...
Tell me again? Why children have luekemia?

Because fucked up shit happens.
And yes, if you think there is a for profit motive to give people cancer I think you’ve lost your mind. And I’m not talking about ignoring or downplaying risks to avoid profit loss as a goal post move for your argument. I’m talking about intentionally giving cancer to profit from the treatment. Saying what I think about that would violate forum rules.

Looks like someone struck a nerve.
Tell us how you really feel?
And there ARE some "vaccines", or innoculations to prevent or protect from some forms of cancer.
And if they can call the China Flu shot a "vaccine", I suppose any immuno-therapy or infusion used to treat blood-cancers, etc., could also be called a vaccine.
I guess I can quit abbreviating my foul language.

Chronic diseases are big business. While I have no doubt many (most? some? vast majority?) in the medical and pharma businesses have only their patients best interests in mind, there's no money in healthy people (well, if you can convince them that they need to take prozac/statin/baby aspirin/etc...)
The CEO who raised a cancer drug's price by 5,000% is firing back at his haters on Twitter
Turing Pharmaceuticals CEO Martin Shkreli's decision to raise the price of Daraprim, a drug used to treat toxoplasmosis in cancer and AIDS patients, by more than 5,000% per pill has made him a target of global outrage. Hundreds of stories have been written about Shkreli, his name trended on...

CEO reviled for drug price hike charged with securities fraud
Martin Shkreli became a poster boy for Wall Street greed when he raised the cost of a life-saving pill from $13.50 to $750

Recall the EpiPen...??
Thalidomide was a widely used drug in the late 1950s and early 1960s for the treatment of nausea in pregnant women. It became apparent in the 1960s that thalidomide treatment resulted in severe birth defects in thousands of children. Though the use of thalidomide was banned in most countries at that time, thalidomide proved to be a useful treatment for leprosy and later, multiple myeloma. In rural areas of the world that lack extensive medical surveillance initiatives, thalidomide treatment of pregnant women with leprosy has continued to cause malformations. Research on thalidomide mechanisms of action is leading to a better understanding of molecular targets. With an improved understanding of these molecular targets, safer drugs may be designed. The thalidomide tragedy marked a turning point in toxicity testing, as it prompted United States and international regulatory agencies to develop systematic toxicity testing protocols; the use of thalidomide as a tool in developmental biology led to important discoveries in the biochemical pathways of limb development. In celebration of the Society of Toxicology's 50th Anniversary, which coincides with the 50th anniversary of the withdrawal of thalidomide from the market, it is appropriate to revisit the lessons learned from the thalidomide tragedy of the 1960s.
