Do you consider organ transplants to not be "cures" of any disease? I've yet to hear of even a potential method for growing vital organs from scratch, and even the methods using donor cells seem to lack FDA approval.
If you do believe that organ transplants can cure a disease, then there must be some threshold of donor commonness that divides organ transplants and this treatment. Where might that line fall?
