It was March 20, when in front of what they called "a million" people, the Prime Minister promised to permanently defeat the cancer. Over the course of three years. It was the manifestation of PDL called following the exclusion from the list Powders in the regional elections of Lazio: the prime minister decided to focus on a delicate topic to involve masses of desperate people in an extreme attempt to raise the boat of an electoral competition that seemed to be turning for the worse, after the chaos of the lists.

A few days ago, in fact, it was discovered that the Silvio Berlusconi raised its stake in the MolMed, the Molecular Medicine Spa, through the Fininvest. His son Luigi, 21, placed on the board of directors. According to reports from the agency Bloomberg, MolMed is a pharmaceutical company that is studying new anticancer drugs. Two, to be exact: one against the main types of cancer, the other with a tonic function for the immune system debilitated by leukemia.

In the meantime, allusions abound in the press and on the internet: it sounds strange how Berlusconi becomes the majority shareholder of the company that has been working on cancer medicines since December, in the face of public declarations in March. With an aggravating circumstance: in the new book by Wasp the prime minister admits that he underwent surgery for cancer. “I'm not even sure that surgery was necessary. Get checked by three different doctors before having surgery,” the Prime Minister. For many, an almost promotional message for a drug that probably won't require further surgery to be able to work.
