Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Tuesday, January 06, 2009

Scientists at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences hope to begin clinical trials this spring on a vaccine to prevent the recurrence of breast cancer. If successful, the vaccine would not replace traditional treatment such as chemotherapy and radiation but could be an additional treatment for patients, said Laura Hutchins, the principal investigator, professor of internal medicine, and director of the division of hematology and oncology.

Sounds like an autoimmune disaster waiting to happen.

I hope Will Smith will be able to find the cure for the resulting outbreak before we're all toast.

Good news.

Saving the tatas is a noble endeavor.

You mean Charlton Heston...I mean Vincent Price....

To bad this is too late for my mom's cousin who died a few years ago due to breast cancer that spread.... but maybe by the time her daughter needs it it will be better...

This sounds plausible--I hope it works.

And if not--to get the scientists on the path to make it better.

This is a grant I endorse.

K8--sorry to hear about your Mom's cousin.

thanks murphy.... it's genetic in that part of the family...

Great story, Zap. Anything that helps is great news.

Someday when they find the genetic cures for cancer, chemotherapy and radiation will be thrown in the medical garbage can of history along with electro shock therapy, leaches, and snake oil.

And hearing aids, and guide-dogs for the blind....

Genetics? Isn't that the field that proves humans are apes?

Unfortunately you have to get breast cancer in order to get the vaccine. Let's hope they can do better then that someday.

Save the boobies!!!

Damn straight.

Go buy your pink stuff folks this is a worthy cause!

No Titty Left Behind!

"the medical garbage can of history along with electro shock therapy, leaches, and snake oil."

Boy you sure are the STUPID one on that! Leaches are being grown in labs to assist when finger are reattached. They help increase the blood flow to the affected finger.

But since you are a GOP you do not believe in science anyway.

I think maggots are actually making a comeback as well.

Did Rev Darko ever get that maggot therapy for a spider bite?
