‘We’re gonna do everything we can to end cancer as we know it’
President Biden said Friday that ending cancer will be his next big scientific endeavor after overcoming the coronavirus pandemic.
“I want you to know that once we beat COVID, we’re gonna do everything we can to end cancer as we know it,” Biden said in Michigan after touring a Pfizer vaccine manufacturing plant.
Biden was in charge of President Obama’s “Cancer Moonshoot” initiative launched in 2016 to double the rate of progress toward a cure. The priority is personal to Biden, who lost his son Beau Biden to brain cancer in 2015. He was 46.

Biden drew parallels between fighting the pandemic and taking on cancer, the second-leading cause of death in America behind heart disease.
“This is a case of life and death,” Biden said. “We’re talking about people’s lives.”
He mentioned his January nomination of Eric Lander as Presidential Science Advisor and Director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy, a Cabinet-level assignment. He praised Lander as “a renowned Harvard, MIT scientist” and said he’ll help bring together the country’s top scientists to conduct advanced research on cancer and other diseases.
“This administration is going to be guided by science to save lives and to make life better,” Biden said.
Biden’s comments came as he visited the Pfizer vaccine manufacturing plant outside of Kalamazoo and touted progress his administration has made in speeding up the distribution of the shots.
“I can’t give you a date when this crisis will end,” Biden said. “But I can tell you we are doing everything possible to have that day come sooner rather than later.”

False claims regarding what is health care have been the life blood of these for a long time. Cancer Centers of America, “Relief Factor”, beet extract, fruit and vegetable pills, marijuana, Tylenol and don’t forget the biologics which is a cure worse than the disease, and of course your own hospital chain, pharmacy and even your PCP. Yet a safe (safer than aspirin) effective severe pain medicine has been almost completely prohibited but for the same reason – a disinterest in the science and a love for a good ‘story’. Dr. Kline for Sturgeon General!
I have followed your blog, It is amazing that you just mixed health and others topics very interestingly. Also I always like your title of the post.
This jerk is so senile i really get nauseas when i hear or see him. The clown doesnt no what day of the week it is.. He didnt no Trump had a vaccine out for Covid Makes me wonder how many of the side kick idiots sending him out to make a fool of himself are laughing there asses off
Biden is a puppet, a mouthpiece. For all that has happened so far, clearly the DEMS are operating under team instructions.
