Chemotherapy is often seen as a big ploy for medical companies in order to get more money and that it does not work, but that's not the case. Chemotherapy has been proven to help get rid of tumors formed by cancer and in some cases, cure patients.
"they boil down to two claims: (1) that chemotherapy doesn’t work against cancer (or, as I’ve called it before, the “2% gambit“) and (2) that the only reason it’s given is because doctors are brainwashed in medical school or because of the profit motive or, of course, because of a combination of the two. Of course, the 2% gambit is based on a fallacious cherry picking of data and confusing primary versus adjuvant chemotherapy, and chemotherapy does actually work rather well for many malignancies, but none of this stops the flow of misinformation."
