That's not what this is, though. This is early detection, which is awesome and super helpful, but way less game-changing than an actual cure.

It's not a cure in itself, but isn't early detection a good way to catch it early and in many cases kill it before it spreads?

It sure is. But this is basically just making something that already exists more reliable, not creating something new. Still important, but not as earth-shaking.
