If you had a virus that if given to a patient, cured them, and once cured, would give that patient the ability to infect other sick people with that virus, hence curing them and so on until all sick people were cured; Would you start the ball rolling by giving that virus to the first [...]

The following TED talk I found reassuring. His observations provide partial reason for why my Plan to “Save the World” may just work.
