Of course the Europeans will market it and it'll be available as a cure in the rest of the world within 10 years.
P-o-P with all due respect:

"Jane, you ignorant slut."

There is very little in medicine that can be "cured". Most of the cures fall into the surgical realm. If you can't cut it out, it's tough to "cure" it. An exception I can think of right now is acute leukemia, mostly in kids. Some forms of lymphoma respond very well to treatment as well.

Cures are hard to come by. But don't let reality change your opinion.
