  • They make it sound as if this is new, but this method has been studied for decades… My dad was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer in Jan of 2013. He happened to get into clinical trials that basically had him “living with cancer” for 5 years. It wasn’t until the last few months that the cancer outpaced the drugs and took over, invading his brain, then it was only a matter of a very short time before the brain cancer ruptured & killed him. But prior to that, he got 5 years. The drugs he was on??? Targeted immunotherapy including a lot of mRNA vaccine therapy. (Turns out he was a guinea pig for the technology that would be used in Covid vaccines. He always hoped his clinical trials would help future patients, he just had no idea how far reaching that would really be.)

    The problem is, cancer is in essence a mutation machine, which means it quickly outpaces our ability to create the vaccines. I think we’ll get there; just going to take a while before we learn how to keep up.
