Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away.

They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

1. Dang!

Too late for Alex Trebek!

But otherwise great news!

[xmas74]

31. Patrick Swazye too nt

[Oopsie Daisy]

33. And Michael Landon...

... and one of my dearest friends from school.

[xmas74]

79. And a friend's father

It was rough watching him lose his battle.

[soldierant]

47. So many others and it seems to be increasing.

At 70, I had never heard of the disease until Alex was diagnosed (which abviously makes me and mine very lucky), but after that it seemed like every month or so some one else prominent died from it.

[Horse with no Name]

71. And Andy Stephenson

RIP Andy

[True Dough]

73. Was that DU's Andy?

The photographer?

[Horse with no Name]

75. Yes.

That would be him!

[True Dough]

78. Seemed like a swell guy

Wherever he is now, I hope he's carrying the best camera gear and has landscapes to capture beyond his wildest imagination.

[Liberal In Texas]

74. And my brother

[Bernardo de La Paz]

2. maga thinks mRNA is reprogramming our DNA, for what? Maybe for 5G receivers. They are nucking futs. . . . nt

[Figarosmom]

6. That's actually

Neurolink, musks chips into humans to link with computers to heal paralyzed people. Don't know if that is what he's actually doing sin e he has turned out to be so evil. I keep seeing him like Samual L Jackson in Kingsmen. Magas need to grow the fuck up and pay attention.

ITS NOT mRNA THAT IS GOING TO "REPROGRAM" YOU, IT'S YOUR 2 HEROS, MUSK AND TRUMP.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

8. Actually that is a separate thing entirely. But right, tRump-Muck is government magas always fear.

They just don't know yet that it has arrived.

[slightlv]

40. With these two, they also haven't realized their deep and abiding fear

of many, many decades of the "New World Order" is being realized, as well. Unfortunately for them, THEY are that New World Order they always feared the UN would embody. And if they're not fearful of it today, they ought to be.

[Figarosmom]

69. Yeah i was just

Thinking about that a few weeks ago.

[Initech]

37. mRNA vacciens aren't altering our DNA. Social media is reprogramming their brains.

[riversedge]

76. It takes so little to reprogram a mush 'brain'!!

[MarcoZandrini]

64. They think it'll

turn them gay.

[Hekate]

3. A neighbor died 2 weeks after her diagnosis. MuskTrumpRFKjr are utterly evil.

[Backseat Driver]

5. I'm so sorry for the loss of your neighbor

My brother died of pancreatic cancer.

[Grim Chieftain]

7. I am sorry for the loss of your brother

A good friend of mine died two years of the same cancer.

[Figarosmom]

4. And Texas, Kentucky,

Idaho, Florida and Montana are trying to outlaw the vaccines.

I hope for the people in thise states they don't but I hold little hope that the losers running those states will wake up. Being "woke" is worse than death to those fools.

[dchill]

12. Evidently, not being "woke" IS death in a lot of cases.

I hope there are options for the woke folk in those benighted states.

[Figarosmom]

13. Yeah me too

[Maru Kitteh]

65. Happy to report Montana voted that stupid bill down.

https://flatheadbeacon.com/2025/02/19/house-kills-bill-to-ban-mrna-vaccines-in-montana/

Killed in the house by representatives from the deepest red parts of the state, no less.

[pandr32]

9. OMG! That is so wonderful!

[yardwork]

22. Except that Musk just shut it down.

[Cha]

10. There will be Black Market

personalized mRNA vaccines.

MUMPutin want to kill as many Americans as possile so outlawing this is rightup their ugly alley.

Wati till' some Culties want to save their lives against Pancreatic Cancer.

TY apple

[MorbidButterflyTat]

70. Gee, I wonder who

will benefit from the black market grift?

[Punx]

11. That is fantastic news

One of my grandfathers died of it, though at 92 years old. A nasty disease.

[SunSeeker]

14. Pancreatic cancer killed my mom 17 years ago. I remember them telling me there was no treatment.

Her's was too far along. She died less than 3 months after diagnosis. It was a horrible death.

To think that anyone would not care to cure cancer is just unfathomable.

[orange you glad....]

21. Cancer cells turn on and off.

Did your mom get chemo?

[SunSeeker]

43. No. She was Stage IV already when diagnosed. She just went into hospise.

It was brutal.

[DFW]

15. Pancreatic cancer killed my father

He hung on for 11 months after his doctors said he’d be lucky to have two or three.

I’d give just about anything to turn back the clock to save him.

I’d give just about anything to see those who would impede progress toward a successful treatment or a cure be themselves stricken with the disease. It might rearrange their priorities somewhat.

[Diamond_Dog]

30. I'm sorry about your dad, DFW.

Many of these crazed idiots would refuse any lifesaving treatment if diagnosed, (especially if it was researched and developed by the “gubmint”) and would just shrug and say “It’s God’s will ….”

[Aristus]

32. Mine too.

My Dad held on for seventeen months; almost unheard of with a disease that usually only has a six month survival period.

[Kablooie]

16. RFK Jr won't let this last long.

[bmichaelh]

17. If this is outlawed by MAGA

Wealthy will go to Canada or Europe if this becomes a cure.

Or Trump will allow it but try to take the credit.
Which flies in the face of logic since he and Elmo are cutting back on cancer research.

[rurallib]

29. Iowa is trying to outlaw it this legislative session

or actually the administration of mRNA. Put doctors and nurses in jail for giving a shot.

[slightlv]

41. Another "freedom of choice" shot to hell, eh? Sure... keep telling me we're free. /snark nt

[rurallib]

46. Iowa is also having a real problem getting health care professionals to

move there. What a surprise!

[IA8IT]

53. Never ever did I think Iowa would elect such a shitty slate of officials.

No logic no medicine no facts only blind obedience and worship of lucre.

10 years too late for my way better half.

[SharonAnn]

68. I grew up in Iowa. My father was a surgeon. I can't believe what level Iowa has sunk to.

And it used to have a great education system, great universities. And the ITED (Iowa Test of Educational Development) used to be a standard test in many states to assess a student’s learning.

How. Heartbreaking.

[Pacifist Patriot]

18. Pancreatic cancer killed my father-in-law in November.

This is amazing.

[underpants]

54. ❤️

[KewlKat]

19. Isn't that what King Charles has? Hopefully they

Might be able to try it on him?

[milestogo]

20. Karma would dictate that one of his children gets it and nothing can be done

because he destroyed the research.

[OMGWTF]

24. DJT DGAF

[Emile]

23. My best friend died in 1984 to pancreatic cancer. 31

years old, leaving a wife and three young daughters.

[Blue Full Moon]

25. Yet trump is silencing mRNA from any and all research

[Irish_Dem]

26. Trump/Musk get up every day and ask: what fresh hell evil can we do today?

[SergeStorms]

27. Ignorance is extremely dangerous.

Especially when it's willful ignorance.

[3catwoman3]

42. "Especially when it's willful ignorance."

Which is usually is with these miscreants. And even worse when combined with arrogance, which it also usually is.

[HereForTheParty]

28. Somebody has to call bullshit on this

I lost both my parents to cancer and am a survivor. But every couple months we get these huge breakthrough stories, never to heard from again. I hope I'm wrong.

[Trust_Reality]

36. My wife's doctor mentioned this a few days ago.

She is a pancreatic cancer survivor for almost 5 years, counting from the radical surgery ("Whipple&quot . She recently had a PC (pancreatic cancer) tumor removed from her lung. Very painful type of surgery. PC actually messes with immune system processes. A so-called vaccine that works effectively with the immune system would be extremely good news. Wife was lucky that hers was found early enough for surgery to be pretty effective - plus a good, very experienced surgeon. (Univ of Colo Med.)

This potential "vaccine" is a treatment, not a typical preventative vaccine as I understand it.

Someone close to the Trump-Kennedy regime needs to get some first hand experience with PC. The chemo regimen would be especially informative if they had the opportunity for first hand experience.

[mackdaddy]

34. Apple CEO Steve Jobs basically died from Pancreatic Cancer

He had surgery and a liver transplant and lasted a long time but even his Billions could not stop the inevitable.

So maybe the Tech Bros Billionaires will have it available to themselves, but the masses not so much.

[electric_blue68]

35. That's...amazing!

Lost an aunt, and a dear neighbor.

One of the most vicious ones.

[wendyb-NC]

38. Curing Pancreatic Cancer is phenomenal, a miracle

It is such an awful disease, and the cabal of no nothings wants to get rid of it. That is f#&ked up. That whole warped package of idiots has to go, must go.

[PopArtMonkey]

39. Pancreatic cancer killed my father in 2000.

Three months from diagnosis to death.

Sent this link along to my mother. She's equally thrilled and livid.

[OnionPatch]

45. It killed my husband in 2000, too.

Six months from diagnosis to death. Pancreatic cancer is a nightmare. I'm so sorry for your loss. Here's hoping this will really mean progress in the battle against this awful disease.

[MLWR]

44. Do they think that they themselves are immune to getting pancreatic cancer?

[Trueblue Texan]

48. My dad died of pancreatic cancer when I was 4 years old.

What would life have been like to grow up with a dad? That children and families could be saved from this deadly disease is a true miracle. Why is the right so invested in destroying everything good?

[UTUSN]

49. K&R

[AverageOldGuy]

50. Just wait

RGKJr will not permit testing and instead will recommend vitamin A for pancreatic cancer,

[Beachnutt]

51. The felon has to figure out how to

take credit for it and cash in on it.

[LiberalArkie]

55. Supposedly This is what mRNA vaccines were invented to do. They just never were able to test it until the Blessed Covid

came about. The method was proven to work. It was believed that the researchers could take a snippet of DNA from a tumor in a patient and run it through the stuff and pop out a mRNA vaccine. I believe that the CRISPR machine was developed for this also..

This is just my memory of events early on when the COVID vaccine was just being ramped up.. May not be fact but it is just stuck in my memory that the vaccine came from research in individualized cancer therapy.

[Docreed2003]

56. That's exactly right

The whole concept of mRNA for vaccine and disease treatment has been around for a couple decades. Researchers used those existing platforms to create the vaccine for Covid.

[LiberalArkie]

58. Fantastic. My 77 year old brain cells got something correct.

The articles I had read was that there was no way of testing the viability of it on enough different healthy patients to prove out the theory. And this is why the 1 brain cell red hat wearing people in the science were opposed. Been around for ever but no double blind etc studies to find out..
How do you test a custom vaccine designed for a single person?
Oh the tumor went away or was it because it was remission from chemo. Because it would be murder to stop the chemo.
Or. The patient died, was it the new vaccine of just the cancer killed the patient.

With covid they were able to test the rapid creation of a new vaccine.

Same with HIV was a blessing for modern medicine. Before HIV needles and syringes were just autoclaved and reused. People were given shots with the same syringe. Moving blood between patients was pretty common.

So much has been learned in the last few decades. Just in my life.

I had to have my appendix out with I was 13 in 1961. The doctor was pretty tipsy. He had an ashtray beside him during surgery. How did I know, I woke up from the ether and asked for some pain medicine and a nurse slapped a mask or something over my face and I passed out again.

A lot of changes to come. Cancer might not be wiped out, but it maybe individually cured once a biopsy is taken and crispr d and made into a mRNA drug and injected.

[Docreed2003]

60. As a surgeon...your appendectomy story makes my laugh and cringe simultaneously

We have come a long way. mRNA vectors have been in research since when I was in med school in late 90's early 200'0's. I think we will see so many more uses for them as time goes on, assuming research funding approval remains in place.

[LiberalArkie]

62. If it is not done here, it will be done elsewhere.

Since they were able to mass produce the covid for a couple of hundred. I think insurance companies might be extremely happy to pay $50,000 for a round of shots that will cure the patient instead of the amount spent now for the surgery and chemo.

And with the AI coming online with the fast CT scans and MRI's, it won't be long for laying down for the body scan and the computer pops out where and what kind of tumors etc are in the body..

[misanthrope]

67. I was listening to a science report today on new mRNA use

Researchers successfully used mRNA which produces a tardigrade protein to protect surrounding tissue from radiation damage during cancer treatment. The study is still at the mouse stage.

[JustAnotherGen]

57. My grandmamma

Died from this. Diagnosed and gone 3 weeks later.

Understand - we are dealing with sadists. When the regime falls - no mercy. This is just sadistic.

[slumcamper]

59. Fortunately the world is bigger than us. The good work of progress will proceed--elsewhere. n/t

[moonscape]

72. And proceed with many of the

brains we will be rapidly draining.

[redwitch]

61. Pancreatic cancer killed my FIL and my SIL.

I hope that we can at least agree that a cure for this is a good thing. What the hell’s wrong with this country?

[mn9driver]

63. It killed my mom. Vicious disease.

That was just about exactly 18 years ago. Very few people survived any length of time with it back then.

[Maru Kitteh]

66. I am so sorry.

Losing your mom just never goes away. Doesn’t matter how old we get.

[dutch777]

77. Patients Without Borders. Helps people find med treatment abroad. May need that. Oh Canada!
