CURE Quote
So, to summarise, in order to get the greatest placebo effect possible, you need to give the most elaborate, painful, costly, invasive and time-consuming placebo possible, give it in an environment filled with authority figures and technology, all administered by an enthusiastic supporter of the treatment. I think it is safe to say that surgery ticks all these boxes on the placebo list. Combine these factors with societal expectations (which are high for surgery), our desire to see things work, and some ‘scientific’ support (usually from observational, potentially biased studies) and you have then built up enough placebo effect to cure cancer.
