So, soon, idiots will be dying of pancreatic cancer because they’re afraid of vaccines.
Good. Cull the herd.
People are already dying of cervical cancer because their idiot parents were afraid of vaccines.
I have a friend decide not to get it for her son because “his autistic ass won’t have a woman in his life in the future”. Men can spread hpv and suffer from it too, btw
My mom thinks that that HPV vaccine is one of the most evil vaccines ever because it’s telling girls that there’s one less thing to worry about when it comes to having sex.
She is a cancer survivor. She also had a LOT of issues maintaining a pregnancy and wasn’t able to have as many kids as she wanted. She just can’t seem to wrap her head around the fact that this vaccine saves so many young women from similar thing to which she has suffered.
Six years after treatment, Gustafson and six others who responded to the treatment are still alive, along with two of the eight people who did not respond. Two of the responders, including the one who died, had a cancer recurrence; Gustafson’s cancer has not come back.
So, n=8, 25% didn’t work.
This is not statistically powered enough to make any conclusions.
Scientists should probably caution that more research is needed.
But to clarify, it’s n=16. Half of those who received the treatment responded and started producing immune cells. Six years later 7 of the 8 who responded are still alive, while only 2 of the 8 who didn’t respond are alive. This is one of the deadliest cancers, so having 9 out of 16 still alive after 6 years is an incredible success. More work is needed to find out why half didn’t respond, but going from a 13% survivability rate to 56% is a pretty great result for an early trial.
