It still sounds like this was an experimental treatment. It was brought to the doctor by the patient’s wife. So we don’t know all the specifics of how likely it would have been to help.
Even so, these kinds of experimental treatments are often paid for by the companies that provide them. There’s still a process they go through to get a “compassionate use” case approved, because they don’t have the resources to provide it to everyone who asks. I wonder if they were denied for this, if they never applied for it, or if this particular company just doesn’t offer it.
I’m not saying that US healthcare isn’t fucked or anything. Just that the situation has more nuance than the headline suggests.
Edit: sorry, should have realized when I saw the same headline on reddit that this was a reddit thread.
The treatment definitely would have worked, and if we didn’t have health insurance companies then cancer would literally never kill anyone, because we’d just keep trying experimental treatments until everyone lived forever.
You’re just trolling? Or your reading comprehension needs a lot of work? Or maybe you’re some kind of paranoid, living the loneliest life, because all you see are bootlickers everywhere. I genuinely don’t know which one it is.

I hope for your sake that boot polish isn’t a carcinogen when ingested orally.
