It's always more profittable to TREAT a disease than to cure it or prevent it.

There's no magic bullet.  Offer something others feel is valuable that isn't saturated and then design a strategy to get the word out at a cost that allows you to make a profit.

I'd go with Pharmaceuticals as there is more money.

YES! folks if a cheap and simple cure to diabetes were to be found you know the pharm-cartel will have something to do trying to keep it away and debunk it from the general public. READ 'Cures They Don't Want You To Know About" by Kevin Trudeau!

Where there is a will there is usually a way. First you want money to drink alcohol that'll cause heart disease, liver damage, pancreatic damage and generally mess up your body. If that doesn't work then the sexual diseases will - in fact one or the other will probably kill you. Anyone want you dead enough to part with their money? As you have a computer you could write a blog about your exploits. Use MS word to do it. Save it. Then copy and paste it onto a blog site. If the perverts keep reading it and making comments - maybe - you're on to something. Take all your saved blogs and turn them in to a book. Call it "My life as a total Waster". It might sell well - and you could end up in the red light district of Amsterdam celebrating your success.

When was the last time any big moneymaking disease was cured?  In this advanced scientific age you would think quite often.  I don't have an exact answer, but I can't think of anything recent.  It would not be profitable for the pharmaceutical companies.  So instead, we just get better ways to control our disease and we live longer so that they can make even more money from us.  Will it ever happen?  Probably.  Will it happen in our lifetime?  Doubtful.

Well, it wouldn't be an AIDS vaccine, it would be a vaccine to prevent HIV infection... and the FDA just gave approval for human testing of a vaccine for HIV infection, so one is likely to be forthcoming very soon.\n\nThe big problems with HIV which make the road to a vaccine seem much longer than it should take are in the uniqueness of the virus.\n\nFirst, we cannot instantly create a vaccine to any virus out there, no matter what type of virus it is.  These things take time to make.  It was years of research which led to a working vaccine for all the diseases we now vaccinate for, from polio, hepatitis, measles, mumps, smallpox, etc.  Even the flu vaccine initially took several years to develop, and we have to take some time to develop new vaccines for new strains, even though we've become old hat at making them.\n\nSo, in that regard, it hasn't taken an especially long time.  Twenty-five years of research may seem like a lot of time, but when you're confronted with a whole new class of disease, learning as much as we have about it in that length of time-- even as it's racing to evolve so quickly-- shows quite a bit of dedication and accomplishment.  \n\nDespite the notable fact that those researching the problem have often been crippled by prejudice and hatred on the part of those doling out the money for research, an amazing amount has actually been done in the last quarter century or so to fight this disease and ultimately defeat it.\n\nAs we get the process of creating a vaccine for this particular virus down, it will become easier and quicker for us to manufacture new vaccines to guard against the virus as it evolves into new strains.  Subsequent vaccines are always much easier to develop than the first one to combat a disease.\n\nThe second problem is that HIV likes to mutate a lot more than other diseases seem to, which would greatly decrease the effectiveness of a traditional vaccine since creating a vaccine that was only effective for one or two strains, without taking the others into account, would only offer partial protection against the possibility of becoming infected, a protection which would become increasingly incomplete as the number of new strains you weren't vaccinated against increased.\n\nYou also have to couple that with the fact that HIV doesn't go through the usual routes of transmission.  Vaccines work by pre-empting your body's immune response.  Instead of waiting for you to fight off an illness so your body's immune system can engineer a pattern on which to build its antigens to destroy the virus, vaccines simply supply it the blueprints so the first time you come into contact with the virus itself, your body already has the ability to produce the specific antigens to destroy it without you getting sick.\n\nThat's all well and good, except HIV starts off by specifically infecting and destroying the cells which do that, so even if you supply them with the blueprint, by the time the body knows its under attack, it's too late for it to do anything about it.\n\nSo, all that put together means we have to be quite a bit trickier than usual in creating an effective advance defense for the little bugger so we don't have to worry about contracting it... but like I said, it only took us twenty-five years or so to figure it out from the first time HIV appeared, so we've actually done pretty well on that road.

No, there is no cure for HIV/AIDS. Ignore the idiots comment above, because if there was a cure for HIV/AIDS, the first company to have it patented would make so much money like never. Treating terminally sick people is expensive and the companies sure do make good money but they have to share the market, and the money anyone would get from actually curing the disease is huge.

It's actually the pharmaceutical companies that take control of making it public.  They would do it if it could make them a buck.

You would probably get better results by simply talking to the local pharmacy or your doctor.  They have contact with the drug companies and usually know how to get the special arrangements.  \n\nAds on TV are not always the most reliable source of information and are usually out to make a buck for themselves.

There isn't a cure, and there may never be.  Some cancers have really good therapies (ie testicular cancer, childhood leukemia).  Some really don't, ie pancreatic, glioblastoma.  Some cancers still kill within 1-2 years, and this hasn't changed in decades.  But many are more treatable now.  AIDS has alot of drugs for treatment, but it's actually hard to prevent people from getting AIDS (vaccines difficulties) or to root out HIV (antiviral difficulties).  All we can do really is keep it from spreading.  Maybe in a few more decades we can do this.  Cancer will always be a problem because you won't know you have it until it's too late, since most people don't do checkups for every type of cancer out there every year.  Maybe in the future we'll have a blood test that can tell if you have any type (or 99% of them) of cancer.  ALot of work is going into that, including some that our lab is doing.  But believe me there is no vast consipracy; but you can make the arguement that potentially life saving drugs are not on the market because the regulatory hurdles are too high or they won't make a profit.  Drugs cost billions to get FDA approved, and unless they are going to benefit alot of people pharma companies aren't going to bother with them.  That's economics, it's not a conspiracy.  If we didn't have such huge requirements then there would be alot more drugs available, and alot more people will die from them.
