      I hope so. Some can be cured already and so we are getting there. There are so many types of cancer that it is complicated though which is why it is taking so long.

      I think there will be. We’re constantly finding out about the different kinds of cancers. And we also already know that vaccinating against HPV protects us from cervical cancer. I don’t think we’re too far off…

      There are many different types of cancer. Some cancers can be cured using drugs, and radiation therapy, but one day we may discover a way to treat all types of cancer.
