> Virologists aren't sitting around waiting to develop cancer before they decide to roll out the miracle cancer cures.
You say that, but the article suggests otherwise. This virologist did believe that her colleagues were sitting around not rolling out something that would cure her. It is pretty easy to see how a lot of cures would be stuck in the research world, unable to get to patients; there is no reason to believe they are moving quickly to bring cures to market. You can see people arguing up and down the thread how they have higher priorities than testing stuff to see if it might work.
