Wouldn't this be great if we could finally see an end to this terrible disease? Fingers crossed.



Scientists at the Penn State College of Medicine said this week they have discovered a virus that is capable of killing all types of breast cancer "within seven days" of first introduction in a laboratory setting.

The virus, known as adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV2), is naturally occurring and carried by up to 80 percent of humans, but it does not cause any disease.

Researchers learned of its cancer-killing properties in 2005, after Penn State scientists observed it killing cervical cancer cells. They also found that women who carried the AAV2 virus and human papillomavirus (HPV), which causes cervical cancer, had a lower propensity to develop cervical cancer.

When combined in a lab recently, AAV2 eradicated all the breast cancer cells "within seven days," according to researchers. Better still, it proved capable of wiping out cancer cells at multiple stages, negating the need for differing treatments used today.

Bill,

WOW! That is good news. Let's hope they can turn it into a viable treatment and better still a preventative treatment soon.

Thanks for informing us.

I so hate to be cynical, but after seeing the 'Cancer Industry' at work close up, I find it very difficult to believe they will allow this to go any further.
I pray I'm totally wrong.

Just to give you an example, About 50 years ago it was discovered that radio waves at certain specific frequencies killed all cancer cells.
It was outlawed because the FCC does not have jurisdiction over any type of medical procedures. Sheesh..
