The Alliance of Virchow and Liau et al. To Offer the Only Intelligent Solution to Win the War on Cancer, on Cardiovascular Diseases, and on a Series of Fatal Diseases Evolving due to Wound Unhealing

The objective of this article is to offer an intelligent solution to win the war on cancer, on cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and on a series of fatal diseases evolving due to wound unhealing, which remain unsolved for a very long time. Health profession is an authoritarian profession very much like communist regimes often dominated by very powerful bosses to put up policies for the entire profession to follow. Intelligent bosses can put up good policies to enhance the reputation of health profession and to benefit patients. But inept bosses can put up bad policies to damage the reputation of health profession and to hurt patients. Apparently, health authorities are unable to handle diseases evolving due to wound unhealing, since the mortalities of diseases due to wound unhealing keep on escalating. Solution of top killing diseases is a national priority to every country. Cancer and CVDs are the two top killers of humans, cancer claiming 10 million casualties and CVDs claiming 20.5 million casualties annually worldwide. Saving patients should not be a battle of ideologies. It should be a choice of intelligent solutions. Virchow was extremely talented to comprehend the logic of wound unhealing to the evolution of cancer at a time neither cancer nor wound healing was completely known. Liau et al. were also extremely talented to decode the logic of wound unhealing to the evolution of cancer by the discoveries of abnormal methylation enzymes, chemo-surveillance and the mechanism of wound healing to support the validity of Virchow’s concept of cancer evolving due to wound unhealing. It is very disappointing that cancer establishments are unable to understand the valid concept of cancer evolving due to wound unhealing when cancer and wound healing have become completely known. This is the problem of health profession. Once the bad policy is adopted by the big bosses, the bad policy carries on to damage the reputation of health profession as a profession unable to solve a simple wound healing problem and to hurt patients. This is a political issue. We have to find a political solution to resolve the impasse. A congressional hearing to discuss the issue is appropriate to find a political solution, since solution of top killing diseases is an important issue of national interest.
