Can mRNA Vaccines Work for Cancer?

[@diyeana]

To counter balance other's sample size of one: My dad has a severely weakened immune system from cancer, and I feel like the shots saved his life. Almost every time he gets a chest infection he ends up in the hospital. His two bouts with COVID were both short lived and easy. However, our individual examples do not mean anything until added into the average of millions, which shows that the COVID vaccine and boosters *_reduce risk of death and hospitization._* It does not guarantee a person won't get sick anyway, or you won't feel awful. Every time someone talks about how sick they were I think about how bad it could have been if they weren't vaccinated. We will never know for sure. I don't think we want to know.

“Never know for sure…” Considering how many straight up lost the fight the first two years alone, it’s a safe assumption that those of us paying attention to the numbers have a real good idea. It did have a bonus of making elections easier to win in battleground states.

Its an interesting test of this kinda of tech, but I am not too optimistic about it. I participate in a COVID study among people in the Netherlands. We fill in questionairs and get free tests, which we send in by mail when positive. The government's health services who oversees the study, last reported to us, they see a 50% reduction among the group who is covid vaccinated. You are half as likely to get it, if you have been near someone with a known infection. However, I work in radiotherapy. Last I hear some year or two back, surgery, chemo, immuno and radiotherapy -- all tools we had, produce a very somber prognosis. Like 40% over all survival for patients who get radiotherapy. If I remember correctly, immuno added a couple of percent. The lung cancer vaccine will probably work some - but I dont think its likely to double overall survival for the NSC group... Immuno kicks your immune system into overdrive - and so as a side effect, it may cause inflammation in other organs. Which is then stopped with prednisone - but that also ends immuno therapy. And your next treatment will likely involve some chemo. Lung cancers also metastasise to the brain easily; and if immuno derails in the brain... Given a desperate situation, yes we have to try. But still...

Great video

Not liking a Healthcare Triage video is like committing a crime! D: Hopefully your problem fixes itself after a refresh or something like that, works fine for me

[@donnawillis2030]

@l01230123 I think his videos are amazing. I am clicking the thumbs up button icon and it is not highlighted. I haven't experienced this problem before.

I've had this problem before. I usually have to restart the app, or my phone.

Truth

[@Joan-d3z]

So you deleted my post. It does not change the truth of what I wrote about my poor experience with the covid shot.

[@dosadoodle]

For what it's worth, I doubt it was the channel deleting your previous comment. KZbin frequently auto-deletes or hides my comments, including many mundane comments. I think their systems are overly aggressive, which I find very frustrating.

[@Call-me-Al]

​@@dosadoodle Seconded, my comments against makeup ingredient misinformation are often removed by youtube itself despite not being mean nor anti-science. I think it was my posting pattern that the youtube algorithm decided was sus or matching bad actors. If it had been something simple like me accidentally using channel-banned keywords then it wouldn't have shown up as posted in the first place only to be removed a few seconds after. Using channel banned words results in your comment not being posted at all in the first place.

The covid vaccines were effective? After 3 shots my young healthy fit wife got very sick from covid. She recovered from covid but not the 3rd shot

[@Adderkleet]

ADRs do occur and are unfortunate (and for COVID jabs, they were about 0.25% and mostly mild). But yes, they were very effective. Comparing fatality rates in dosed and un-dosed groups is pretty convincing proof.

[@mariov5035]

Yes, they were mostly effective. Your wife doesn't represent the entire population.

[@jimm8619]

Sorry for your wife's COVID experience, but to make decisions about the effectiveness of vaccines (or lack thereof), you need a sample size of thousands to millions, and not a sample size of one. @Adderkleet is correct that the overall evidence with the appropriate sample size shows that the COVID vaccines did a very good job.

[@crashed6510]

Dude literally %70 of the entire population of the world got the vaccine. Like all medical treatments at that high of a scale it will have individuals who do not respond well to it. Besides these vaccines are incredibly safe with 21 cases of the 1.89 million doses experiencing anaphylaxis with 17 of those 21 having a history of allergic reactions.
