Good news everybody. We are apparently one step closer to not being worried about diseases from sex. Now setting aside the fact this means we are also one step closer to enabling greater overpopulation this seems like a great thing.

thoughts?

something tells me the cure for cancer is going to be something absurd like.. Rubbing a banana against the tumor.

Naw, bananas have too much potassium. Something rich in zinc such as an oyster would be most effective.

no, but it turns into AIDS which is pretty much guaranteed to kill you. cancer is survivable.

I thought monkeys got SIV, a similar but still different viral infection? HIV wouldn't make sense, since the H stands for Human...

Most of the time getting HIV is preventable, cancer not so much.

Cancer is one of the worst ilnesses in the world. Strikes blindly without warning. Everybody is a target and will suffer through it in one way or another.

Disagree. More likely then not one contracts HIV or AIDS from promiscous sex or drug abuse whereas anyone can get cancer, sometimes from things like smoking and other times for no reason other then growing old.

in 2007 2.1 million died from aids

in 2007 cancer killed about 8 million people

Cancer is 4X more widespread and affects people who do nothing "wrong"

......... And I am sure the cure will be amazingly expensive.. Just like the HIV and AIDS medication which can slow it down to a crawl, to which very few people can actually afford it.

Only if it's fried chicken that the woman makes before! Better make it right too.

For realz though: Not all proteins are found in meat...right?
