The war on cancer is a total fail in my book. They surrendered when they started calling it "many diseases", meaning there will never be a "cure for cancer" by definition.
Huh? You consider it a fail because we learned that there are many different kinds of Cancers? Yes a "one magic pill" option will probably never exist, but we can chip away at all forms of Cancer until they all have a cure.
But realistically, this is not a war I think we can win in my lifetime. It's much bigger than people may have originally thought.
Well, I don't think they just started calling it that for no reason. The fact that they they now know more means they are marking progress, even if it makes it harder to declare victory.
The way I read it is that they were so far from a cure that they didn't even know what they were trying to achieve.
