This cure for cancer has been in the FDA approval testing pipline since at least 2010 and it WORKS.
Any person that is in a terminal stage of cancer should be able to volunteer to take this treatment and get possibly cured. The results would greatly advance the ability to work out the problems with the treatment as well.
But no, it is slow tracked with only about 3% volunteering actually getting in on testing.
Researchers Use HIV Virus to Help Cure Cancer
Llenas said that so far 125 patients with acute or chronic leukemia or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma have received this treatment, and more than two-thirds have gone into a full or partial remission, including 36 children.
Llenas reported that scientists at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine are reprogramming billions of a patient's cells to fight off their own specific cancer, and much of it is credited to the HIV virus.
According to Llenas, researchers are only using the part of the virus that allows it to sneak in to and infect white blood cells.
Dr. David Porter explained that it's not actually HIV and patients can't get HIV, but it's a way of bringing genetic material into the cells that will reprogram them to fight a specific type of cancer.
Llenas said that this can offer an alternative to dangerous bone marrow transplants, as it did for Dr. Doug Olson.
In 2010, half of Olson's bone marrow was cancerous and he was running out of options. He signed up for the therapy and in less than four weeks he was in full remission.
Llenas said that there are still unanswered questions, however, such as if this treatment will work for other cancers.
Why have we Americans become so accepting of government INCOMPETENCE?
