I love the idea of disarming one virus and brainwashing it to kill another. I wonder how long it is before cancer is eradicated.


Forever: cancers are not eradicable unless evolution and mutation and gene expression from adverse environments and ... are all eradicable.

That's a different thing than assessing if a certain instance of cancer is itself curable in a certain afflicted host. Perhaps it is worth hoping for that.
