Promising cancer vaccine in the works utilizing similar mRNA technology that combats COVID: Duke researchers

[Robert59]

COVID-19 vaccine technology doesn’t just fight viruses – it can combat cancer.

Duke researchers find potential in a cancer vaccine based on the same messenger RNA, or mRNA, technology used by COVID-19 vaccines to combat a type of breast cancer that over expresses a protein called HER2, according to a recent Fox 8 report.

I hope it works better on cancers than the Covid vaccine is working on Covid...

mRNA cancer research has been ongoing for years. The major kinks that have kept the tech from passing oncology clinical trials are autoimmune promotion and inflammatory issues. Those failed clinical trials in oncology are partly why my doctor advised me not to take the Covid vaccine due to my autoimmune disorders.

Interesting, since we've been told from the beginning that those with autoimmune disorders (or any disorder) should make sure to get vaccinated. Your doctor is a rare breed.

His MD is from one of the top research medical schools in the US so he keeps up with research independent of continuing education conferences that are primarily sponsored by pharmaceutical companies.
