An Australian company has, according to what I read, created a virus capable of eliminating cancers. While I have moral concerns about genetic engineering in general, I simultaneously do recognize the huge breakthrough the cancer killing virus is, and the lifesaving potential it has. I guess my position these days just has to be, engineer responsibly.

Interesting that a virus is involved. Just like a virus caused HPV. I wonder how it works and what the side effects are.

I've never heard about this, but yes, it would be a giant step forward for Medical Research! Cancer is a diagnosis we've all learned to dread.
