I would love for there to be a 100% cure, I think there already is one. But the problem is pharmaceutical companies can make more money treating the symptoms than they ever would by providing a cure.
Lets take cold and flu remedies for example because the stats for that is more readily available in 2009 it was predicted that in the UK alone we would spend £521 million on over the counter remedies while in the US it was $2.5 billion if there's that much money just in those 2 countries imagine the world profit. Why peddle a cure where you could only make a fraction of that total profit and your shareholders lose out when you can keep your shareholder's happy and make a tidy profit.
I'm a firm believer that somewhere in a lab there are cures for cancer, flu, common cold but while there is a lot of money to be made on topical creams etc in the case of P until something changes I sadly cant see them letting us have it.
Sorry for being a bit negative and heading into Tin Foil hat territory. But i believe that until we as a race move forward and leave financial gain behind and start working toward the betterment of mankind as a whole, these cure's wont be in general circulation.
