Albert Szent Gyorgii, a Nobel Laureate biologist, says that he does not know what cancer is, as he knows that a cancer cell works like a normal cell. He also feels that no one can kill cancer cells without killing normal cells at the same time.
Cancer might be an effort by the body cells to survive a hostile environment by mutating. How can you then kill those normal body cells? Linus Pauling, a double Nobel Laureate, feels, with strong reasons, that cancer research and cancer charities are both fraud.
The President of the American Cancer Association and Nobel Laureate Harold Varmus comes almost to the same conclusion but stops short of calling it a fraud. He has set up a special committee to go into the reasons why well over 85% of cancer research published cannot be replicated? Almost 50% of the diagnosed cancers are not true cancers! They are only incidentalomas, thanks to the scanning industry which tries hard to medicalise normal human life!
How to deal with cancer? Here is a clue. Preventable risk factors like smoking and alcohol are closely associated with 11 of the 15 cancers in the US, finds a US study.
Disability adjusted life years (DALYs) lost to cancer is a new measure. This measure combines mortality, incidence, survival, and quality of life into a single summary indicator. DALYs lost to cancer were mostly related to premature death due to the disease (91%), and only 9% related to impaired quality of life because of cancer, or its treatment, or other disease-related issues. Have we made an effort to really ban tobacco and alcohol? Certainly not, as it would make 11 out of 15 cancers vanish from the planet, a big blow to the cancer drug industry.
Post-graduate medical students of cancereology are dying to make big money as doctors. I have an appeal to the conscientious among them to read the following books. The first book is Nature of Cancer by Manu Kothari and his associate Lopa Mehta. The second one is Introduction to Sub-molecular Biology by Albert Szent Gyorgii.
But what takes the cake is the latest one by a cancer victim, Paul Kalanithi. He was an ethnic Indian, a brilliant writer with MA in English literature from Yale, MD from Stanford with training in some of the top US hospitals. A brilliant neurosurgeon at Stanford, he was struck down by a horrible lung cancer. His book When Breath Becomes Air is a masterpiece. The story of his struggle through hostile cancer treatment and the inhuman attitude of cancer specialists towards a fellow human being in misery, in the Western pseudo-science set up, should be an eye-opener even for the most money-minded corporate hospital honchos. The subtle sarcasm and indictment of the medical world of today, brought out with lucid mastery, is a delight. “A vital book about dying. Awe-inspiring and exquisite. Obligatory reading for the living,” wrote Nigella Lawson. “Rattling. Heartbreaking. Beautiful.” wrote Atul Gawande.
We keep reading occasionally about cancer vaccines. None of the recent hi-tech vaccines has eradicated any disease; rather they have added more iatrogenic diseases like autism. Vaccines form another dangerous industry. No vaccine can kill the biggest industry in medicine, which is cancer.
So far, only smallpox was eradicated by low-tech ancient Ayurvedic vaccination method taken to the West after 20 years of prospective controlled studies in Bengal, in 1767 by an English physician- scientist, TZ Holwell MD, FRCP, FRS. That was sanctioned by the King to be made universal vaccination method. Holwell’s original paper can be read even to this day at the library of the Royal College of Physicians of London of which he was a Fellow.
The West projected Edward Jenner as the father of vaccination which has become a ‘fact’ like many others in Western medicine. Jenner used cowpox virus which we know to be distinctly different from the smallpox virus. I can only sum this up in a beautiful Kannada couplet by the famous writer DV Gundappa:
“Athivaidyadim hosarujina edeyaadeetu’
Mithiyim Naveekarana, Mankuthimma.”
(Too much medicine gives rise to new disease; limited medicines might do well.) Was he not talking of iatrogenesis and adverse drug reactions—the two leading killers in the world today, way back in 1943?
same as the Arms industry making money by the Killings fields around the globe.
now to support the pharma industry, the diangonist industry is blooming.
Dengue and Chicken guneia gave their stock price 50 - 100 % rise in 3 months.
In this world the Rich get Richer by playing on the misery of the Poor.
Now today Trump wants USA to manufacture and also export.
But who will they sell the products to - to the people in the 3rd world countries have the market but no money to buy.
he wants to do Trade only with countries who will make America Great.
This is a clear case of the UGLY AMERICAN.
