Natures answer to cancer is to let it happen. Just like every other disease.
The way it eradicates it, is that we eventually all die of it, and the few that survive live on to have immunity. It takes an extremely long time. The major problem is, things like cancer usually happen well beyond the point that we start reproducing.
Evolution doesn’t really care about things beyond the point of reproduction. I mean, it kinda does, but not in the same way that dropping dead in childhood does.
Not to mention, humans are actively meddling in evolution. Diseases that would wipe us out are handled with technology now. Meaning we have taken control of a lot of what nature used to do.
nature cared enough to put a lot of effort into error correction preventing it.but youre right, just enough to keep’em coming
Nature didn’t care, it was just an happy accident, a mutation that gave an advantage over others who couldn’t correct errors in replication. So they remained and others died away.
