Cuba has been researching the drug for 25 years and they've had the vaccine since 2011, which it's offered for free in Cuba because it's only a dollar.
They say it's only become known recently, but how would a cancer vaccine, even from a country like Cuba, be that unknown?
It says that it is a vaccine for lung cancer, but also may be effective in treating and preventing breast, colorectal, head-and-neck, prostate and ovarian cancers.
A country like Cuba, with an economy that is 8 times smaller than ours, can find a vaccine, but the US, the country with the greatest minds on the planet, can't?
Makes you wonder.
It's a HUGE discovery, though!
Could we be looking at the end of cancer deaths?!
It's worth the read!
The US probably found the cure for cancer 40 years ago. They've just never come out with it because it would cost the entirety of the medical field TRILLIONS of dollars (with a "T") over a period of a decade or two. You think they want to give up such a massive profit? No.
Cuba, on the other hand, doesn't seem to profit off the medical field, so they have no reason to hold it back.
