All it might take is some instagram cancer influencers, a lab in india or china and some darkweb transactions to DIY your cancer away... if this is so incredibly effective and safe in humans, too.
Or DIY yourself away accidentally. But I guess that would make it a tie, since the cancer dies as well...
Thalidomide used to cost $6 per capsule in the '70s when it was given for morning sickness (yes, I know, birth defects) but as soon as they found out it cured cancer the price went up to $18,000 and that's on GoodRx lol. [1] Harvoni for Hep C is $94,500 for a 12-week course.
Drugs aren't priced based on the cost to manufacture but based on the projected savings as compared to existing treatments for the medical system - or based on the value the provide to customers. Curing cancer provides value -> price moons.
Unfortunately healthcare is not and cannot by definition be a free market as a free market requires the voluntary exchange of money for goods and services. "Pay me or die of cancer" is not a voluntary exchange but a coerced one - hence the failure of pricing and availability of necessary care you see in the US.
