There will be custom printed MRNA vaccines that target cancers based on sequencing that cancer's own DNA.
Does this mean we would get vaccinated against all forms of cancer? Because these are a lot. What about people who already have a cancer?
Many kinds yes, idk enough to say all. Docs take a sample of the cancer DNA, turn that into an mRNA vaccine, inject it into you, and your immune system precisely destroys the cancer.
It seems interesting for many cancers, and lifesaving for already metastasized cancers.
Only downside will be lifelong wage garnishment to The Company.
It's not necessarily a vaccine that you get in advance. It's simply a vaccine in that it causes your body to create antibodies against the wonky cells, they can happen after chemo or radiation and still be effective.
