Let's fucking goooo! People are just so clever. This is amazing.

While the "full-blown timeline" for the vaccine being approved "might be many years away" the visible impact could be sooner.
Professor Ahmed added that, through clinical trials, he would hope to start seeing the vaccine's impact "in four or five years on the healthy population".
This is really exciting. I wonder if vaccines could be developed for other cancers using a similar technique?
This is great news. Yet, sadly, I am drawn to wondering who will complain about this the loudest. Will it be misogynists who say "they're not helping men with their cancer", or anti-vaxxers saying "this vaccine will actually CAUSE cancer"?
What about people who are both misogynist and anti-vaccine?
Fuck em, essentially. Rather have cancer than a vaccine, that's their choice. It's not until it's a required vaccine that it makes much difference.
Fuck em, essentially.
Yes, that's the attitude that people have as they make the world worse. It's not the best attitude.
And just what are you suppose to do with the people who are intentionally holding everything back?
What about people who are both misogynist and anti-vaccine?
$10 says Alex Jones and his troglodyte cult following are gonna have a field day 😮💨
Alex is a little busy losing everything he owns right now.
Yeah, I knew it. Here come the sad sacks with the useless "this is good news, but......"
I'm an academic working to analyse hate speech, with a particular focus on online misogyny. As bigotry is illogical, common features of communications of that hatred is stuff that is wholly made up. This include the idea that men are being short-changed by a medical industry which prioritise female health. This is factually untrue, in terms of gender differences in health outcomes.
If knowing about the truth makes me a 'sad sack', fine. Maybe being correct and 'sad' is more important than being incorrect yet happy.
Ok, good point. Yet, sadly, children die of cancer.
It’s a good thing we invented this straw person to have this whole discussion artificially when literally no one else was bringing it up. If we can’t find any monsters I guess we’ll invent them and do it anyway. 🙄
Oh you sweet summer child. I wish I could live in your brain.
It’s a good thing we invented this straw person
So, neither misogynists nor anti-vaxxers exist?
I can find you evidence of men complaining about free period products. I am certain there will be men complaining that female cancers are getting cures, and not male ones.
The billions that got pumped into vaxine research... The mRNA method has received a nobel prize. Before this we had no good way (or as safe) to pre-train the immune system to "if you see this (virus, etc.) again, raise the alarms". Now we do.
Edit: updated the wording a bit.
This is some pretty cool research but I already can't wait to see the 100k per vaccine price in the USA lmao.
is this the kind of thing we will never hear about anymore, or is it legit?
Anti-vaxxers: hold my beer.
Well, this is cancer and not some virus so at least they'll only slowly kill themselves after suffering, if they were to have to deal with this. It's not great, but silver linings, I guess?
They're calling it a vaccine. We all know what anti-vaxxers will do when they hear the words vaccines.
It actually completely reverses the dynamic. Anti-vaxxers are bioterrorists because most stuff you vaccinate against is contagious. It's assaulting a public health superstructure that everybody relies on.
But when they only kill themselves? 🍺🍺
Only leftover awful thing is doing it to their poor kids. Still every bit as evil, just with a massive reduction in scope.
Far, far more than a silver lining.
i know it's a pipe dream but if i live to see the eradication of cancer i will truly die happy
"could wipe the disease out"
..."but won't, because thanks to Capitalism it will be non-affordable."
