A Shot at Cancer

Using technology for a good use, scientist have been researching and experimenting new ways to fight cancer. Dr. Douglas Schwartzentruber and Dr. Larry Kwak have been researching a cancer vaccine and trying to perfect it since 1999. They want to get rid of the toxic effects of chemotherapy and use this vaccine. The immune system is basically trained little by little to identify and fight bad unstoppable bacteria that causes tumors. The vaccine will be like a missile that is going to be used when the good body cells are at their strongest point(recession). They are seeing great progress and hoping that it will help cancer stricken patients.

  1. Finding the cure for cancer has been something that I have heard of ever since i can remember. It takes a lot of research and a lot of money. I think our country needs to stop wasting money on the war and focus on the things that really matter. Finding a cure for cancer is one of them. One could only hope for the best

  2. Yes, a cure for cancer would be an extreme medical and science breakthrough. I can't even imagine how many lives could be saved. Our country should be spending more money towards the cure rather than the war and other unnecessary things.
