I know that Harold Varmus won a Nobel Prize for his work on oncogenes and retroviruses...so I imagine he's caught up in all sorts of research malarkey.
But I also have read for many years, among the Pharma dissent community, that the only reason this sort of research goes on (viruses cause cancer) is the momentum in Pharma-driven circles, and the massive moneybags behind that momentum.
The need to keep ginning up Dangerous Virums (TM), and parallel Salvation of the Holy Vax (TM), is where the Pharma-Government Complex went to keep the juggernaut jugging.
E.g., CDC was founded in 1946 originally to handle malaria, mostly in the southern United States. Once that was accomplished, the administrators had to keep the gravy train rolling, so kept coming up with new things that they had to save everybody from.
Without the viral model, they'd have nothing. Which is why they have to keep coming up with dangerous viruses, and bend all research toward supporting their models (including funding model).
