2018-07-13 14:39:04 UTC

that would lead to curing all forms of cancer

2018-07-13 14:39:12 UTC

and even a manor of viral diseases

2018-07-13 14:39:17 UTC

and birth defects

2018-07-13 14:40:01 UTC

Thats what CRISPR is for its just that an actual DNA Strand is extremely long and complex

2018-07-13 14:40:14 UTC

no i said gene control

2018-07-13 14:40:16 UTC

not editing

2018-07-13 14:40:20 UTC

prolly took years form them to get this far

2018-07-13 14:40:25 UTC

ah

2018-07-13 14:40:26 UTC

we dont understand why genes turn on and off

2018-07-13 14:40:32 UTC

we understand what causes them too

2018-07-13 14:40:41 UTC

but not the mechanical chemistry

2018-07-13 14:40:52 UTC

on how the molecules move what molecules are involved

2018-07-13 14:40:55 UTC

what interacts with what

2018-07-13 14:41:34 UTC

when we turn on genes in animal or plant embryos

2018-07-13 14:41:39 UTC

others turn on and off

2018-07-13 14:41:45 UTC

we dont know how to deal with that

2018-07-13 14:42:05 UTC

and some genes we cant even turn on or off because we dont know how

2018-07-13 14:42:15 UTC

quite a predicament

2018-07-13 14:42:33 UTC

Its like coding in that sense

2018-07-13 14:42:48 UTC

yeah

2018-07-13 14:43:56 UTC

in before the big pharma tards

2018-07-13 14:51:50 UTC

I dont follow what is big pharma?

2018-07-13 14:52:20 UTC

pharmaceutical monopolies

2018-07-13 14:52:31 UTC

people think they have a cure for cancer

2018-07-13 14:52:35 UTC

retards say

2018-07-13 14:52:36 UTC

a cure

2018-07-13 14:52:37 UTC

for cancer

2018-07-13 14:52:43 UTC

not like what kind of cancer

2018-07-13 14:52:46 UTC

they just think all types

2018-07-13 14:53:07 UTC

and pharmaceutical companies are hiding the research so they can sell medicine to dying people

2018-07-13 14:54:45 UTC

The sad part is that those people never realize that if "big pharma" had a cure for any type of cancer they wouldn't sit on it

2018-07-13 14:54:56 UTC

They would be raking in the cash instead

2018-07-13 14:55:07 UTC

Treatment is more profitable than the cure

2018-07-13 14:55:38 UTC

ah

2018-07-13 14:55:42 UTC

one of those retards

2018-07-13 14:55:54 UTC

That being said it doesnt apply everywhere

2018-07-13 14:56:37 UTC

True but there is money to be made there its not like being able to cure cancer doesn't necesarily mean it is erradicated

2018-07-13 14:56:50 UTC

there will always be diseases

2018-07-13 14:56:52 UTC

It doesnt apply with cancer

2018-07-13 14:56:58 UTC

If we find a cure

2018-07-13 14:57:02 UTC

People will still get it

2018-07-13 14:57:12 UTC

Its not caused by pathogens

2018-07-13 14:57:13 UTC

Exactly my point

2018-07-13 14:57:43 UTC

It cant be eradicated therefore no incentive to hide a cure

2018-07-13 14:58:18 UTC

So at this point we are arguing the same exact point from the same side

2018-07-13 14:58:26 UTC

i can argue differently

2018-07-13 14:58:33 UTC

ya know flu

2018-07-13 14:58:36 UTC

no wait

2018-07-13 14:58:38 UTC

small pox

2018-07-13 14:58:41 UTC

that shit was eradicated

2018-07-13 14:58:43 UTC

along with polio

2018-07-13 14:58:52 UTC

im sure treating it would have been more profitable

2018-07-13 14:59:03 UTC

what cant be eradicated?

2018-07-13 14:59:24 UTC

sorry i just came into the chat right now

2018-07-13 14:59:33 UTC

nothing cant be eradicated

2018-07-13 14:59:36 UTC

as long as it stays the same

2018-07-13 14:59:48 UTC

aids even though it mutates daily

2018-07-13 14:59:50 UTC

is still aids

2018-07-13 14:59:59 UTC

same with flu

2018-07-13 15:00:09 UTC

you know germany was looking for genes to isolate that made flu flue

2018-07-13 15:00:15 UTC

to make a universal vaccine for it

2018-07-13 15:00:17 UTC

that was so long ago

2018-07-13 15:00:26 UTC

Yeah in that case they can mitigated but not erradicated

2018-07-13 15:00:28 UTC

i guess priorities shifted to brining in dune coons

2018-07-13 15:01:05 UTC

@Deleted User It's time to clean the floors.

2018-07-13 15:02:15 UTC

Nah, Iโ€™m a socialist @JDM_WAAAT

2018-07-13 15:02:16 UTC

There is huge profits on creating a cure for a disease that's not going to go away anytime soo

2018-07-13 15:02:25 UTC

Soon*

2018-07-13 15:02:54 UTC

Cancer cannot be eradicated

2018-07-13 15:03:05 UTC

Sure it can

2018-07-13 15:03:08 UTC

but mostly everything else

2018-07-13 15:03:18 UTC

why cant it

2018-07-13 15:03:29 UTC

Because every cancer is different

2018-07-13 15:03:35 UTC

some animals dont get any type of cancer

2018-07-13 15:03:38 UTC

So?

2018-07-13 15:03:39 UTC

When i speak of a cure i dont mean erradicate, i mean you got cancer and they can make it go away @Deleted User

2018-07-13 15:03:55 UTC

@LumpyAcidFish sharks and jellyfish

2018-07-13 15:03:57 UTC

ssssooooooooooocccciiiiiiiiiiiiiaaaaaaaaaaaallliiiiiiiiiiisssssssssssmmmmmmmmmmm dddddddddddddooooooeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssnnnnnnnnnnntttttt wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwooooooooooooorrrrrrrrrrrrrrkkkkkkkkkkkk

2018-07-13 15:04:00 UTC

if we understood gene control multifactorial traits could be edited into humans

2018-07-13 15:04:02 UTC

naked mole rats

2018-07-13 15:04:03 UTC

whales

2018-07-13 15:04:05 UTC

jellyfish

2018-07-13 15:04:17 UTC

we dont know why sharks dont get cancer

2018-07-13 15:04:20 UTC

or whales

2018-07-13 15:04:22 UTC

Well, the problem with cancer is that the medecine we have does not differentiate between cancer and normal cells

2018-07-13 15:04:30 UTC

im not saying that

2018-07-13 15:04:35 UTC

im saying we can make humans that dont get cancer

2018-07-13 15:04:40 UTC

uh

2018-07-13 15:04:42 UTC

by editing genes once that technology advances

2018-07-13 15:04:44 UTC

I don't think so man

2018-07-13 15:04:49 UTC

why

2018-07-13 15:04:55 UTC

Atleast in the next century

2018-07-13 15:05:12 UTC

2018-07-13 15:05:27 UTC

The most effective cancer medicine right now, just destroys fast growing cells

2018-07-13 15:05:30 UTC

Its still a long ways from happening but theoretically speaking its posible

2018-07-13 15:05:38 UTC

Which is why you lose hair and nails

2018-07-13 15:05:45 UTC

factually possible to eradicate cancer

2018-07-13 15:05:45 UTC

Believe me i know

2018-07-13 15:06:11 UTC

But making humans that are immune to cancer is as possible as making lightsabres

2018-07-13 15:06:22 UTC
