Well the title wasn't "MS universally cured". It's significant progress towards a cure. And curing 3% of a disease that afflicts millions of people is still tens of thousands of lives saved.

And, more interesting, I think, it confirms the theory of what cause the illness. That was not so clear the last time I read about it.

That in itself is a big advancement.
