In the realm of medical advancements, a universal vaccine that can protect against any pathogen has long been a Holy Grail—and about as elusive as a mythological vessel. But Stanford Medicine researchers and collaborators have taken an astonishing step forward in that quest, surprising even themselves.
Wasn’t that the universal “vaccine” that puts your own body’s immune system on alert? I still think that it’s probably a bad idea to permanently have the immune system on alert, otherwise that’d have been a significant evolutionary advantage and become dominant. The fact that it isn’t tells me that there is a downside to always having your immune system on alert.
Yeah, it might be not that simple, and frankly I don’t understand how a vaccine would help against allergies as the researchers claim. Is this too good to be true?
This forum in a nutshell.
you know, it could just be that it consumes more energy and in nature, that’s expensive.
