Cancer treatment is big business. Lots of money for drug companies. Cancer is a disease that attacks the immune system and instead of treating it with things to boost the immune system, doctors cut, burn, and poison (surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy) all of which weaken it. Remember, most medical schools are funded by drug companies (conflict of interest, if you ask me.) I know so many people whose lives quickly came to a halt after being treated by these methods. Check out Dr. Lorraine Day online. She is an American physician with big credentials who was once diagnosed with breast cancer and was told she was going to die. After researching (on her own) she cured her cancer with natural remedies (things that actually help build the immune system, wow imagine that, how simple). She has written books and has done videos. Check out her video, "Cancer Doesn't Scare Me Anymore."

Orlando is talking about the HPV vaccine. It does not cure nor vaccinate you from cancer, just a virus that has been linked with causing cervical cancer. That virus is not the only cause of cervical cancer.
Cancer is something the medical community really doesn't know all that much about. They can spot it easily enough, but the only thing they can do to stop it is kill as many the cells in the area as they can without causing more harm than good... ideally, this gets rid of the cancerous cells, but they can't stop it from coming back. The best cancer research today is in the realm of stem cells, which have been highly controversial because most people are idiots and don't understand what they are. Now that the genome has been decoded, stem cells are the next natural progression to finding cures to diseases that are linked to genetics... knowing the human genome is really of no use to us without stem cell research.
The problem with cancer is that it's not a virus or bacteria - it's our own bodies fighting against us. The cells multiply and bypass the mechanism our bodies have to stop them from multiplying too much. While this kind of thing is easy to fix in single cell organisms, more complicated organisms like ourselves suffer greatly because we have no way of targeting the cancerous cells and reconfiguring the faulty DNA that causes them to multiply.
