"#PFAS companies are launching a 'tidal wave' of forever chemicals production to meet demand from the AI industry... Despite alarm over the chemicals, which have been linked to #cancer, a survey of the 10 biggest manufacturers found most had plans to increase production. Many frame their investments around the 'AI revolution'... But opponents warn that the #chemicals, which never degrade in nature, are a ticking timebomb for human and planetary health."

RE: https://sfba.social/@vij/117244463265588316

woke up today so and angry and sad about this 9/11 #asbestos report, yet couldn’t cry. i most likely developed breast #cancer because i live within the contamination radius.

and it is not just me.

so many of my neighbors developed cancers and other diseases, just like the first responders. yet the government didn't set a penny aside for our health.

everything i have written or said publicly about this American Fascism is true ―and has affected me in more ways than one.

In August, #RFKJr’s #HHS followed up by announcing it would no longer fund #mRNA #research through the Biomedical Advanced Research & Development Authority. The latter move involved the cancellation of 22‼️ separate contracts.

After the #FDA initially declined to review #Moderna’s mRNA-based #flu #vaccine because of the design of the company’s clinical trial, the agency recently approved it.

#Melanoma #vaccine succeeded in large trial!

A personalized #cancer vaccine from #Moderna & #Merck showed promising results, potentially opening up a new way of treating the #disease.

A personalized #mRNA #cancer #vaccine combined with the #immunotherapy #Keytruda succeeded in a late-stage trial for the deadly skin cancer #melanoma, its makers said Wednesday, potentially opening up a new way of treating the #disease.

The study is ongoing, but interim results found the treatment, #intismeran, met both its primary target of reducing cancer recurrence & its secondary ⁠goal of keeping cancers from spreading to other parts of the body.

#PublicHealth #health #science #medicine

The results are “as big a day for humanity as Nov. 16, 2020,” when #Moderna released late-stage clinical trial results showing its #Covid19 #vaccine worked, the company’s chief executive, Stephane Bancel, told CNN Wednesday. “This is a new chapter in #cancer care.”

Moderna said the company & partner #Merck aim to file for approval from regulators within months, though they declined to provide a more specific timeline.

#PublicHealth #health #science #medicine #MedicalBreakthrough

“For many years, the idea of creating an #mRNA treatment designed specifically for an individual patient’s #cancer was aspirational,” Bancel said in a statement. “We are now helping turn that vision into a reality.”

The cancer ‌treatment ⁠combines Keytruda with a made-to-order mRNA #vaccine that is based on an analysis of mutations found in the patients’ own tumors.

#melanoma #PublicHealth #health #science #medicine #MedicalBreakthrough

In January, the companies announced results of a mid-stage trial of the treatment showing ⁠that it reduced the risk of recurrence or death by 49% after 5 years.

#Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin #cancer. In 2023, there were >1.5 million people in the US living with melanoma, acc/to the National Cancer Institute.

The companies said they will present their results at an upcoming medical meeting & share them ⁠with regulators.

#PublicHealth #health #science #medicine #MedicalBreakthrough

Karen Knudsen, CEO of the Parker Institute for #Cancer ⁠Immunotherapy, said the Moderna results could signal a new era for treating solid-tumor #cancers.

“The positive hit here leads us into truly this next phase in #immunotherapy,” Knudsen said. “This is an auspicious start — this is where things begin.”

Messenger RNA, or #mRNA, is a single-stranded molecule that delivers genetic information to direct the formation of proteins. Before it was used in #vaccines against #Covid19, mRNA was stirring excitement among #cancer researchers.

However, the technology has faced backlash in the wake of the pandemic, with some [ #ConspiracyTheories ] questioning the safety of mRNA.

#Melanoma #vaccine #PublicHealth #health #science #medicine #MedicalBreakthrough

Experts say major safety concerns are unfounded, but #government #funding for #mRNA, particularly for its use against respiratory viruses, has been slashed during #Trump’s 2nd admin, driving concerns that mRNA innovation could stall.

#RFKJr’s #HHS last year CANCELLED a $590 million deal with #Moderna to develop an mRNA-based #vaccine against emerging pandemic influenza.

A quotation from Jean Kerr

MARY: Well, I worry terribly about lung cancer. I also worry about shortness of breath and heart disease. But what really worries me right this minute is that I’m not going to find a cigarette.

We’ve been praying for #Canadian recording artist Brian Doerksen’s health. From his family:
“Thank you. Your words of encouragement have been such a gift to our family and team, and we have been deeply blessed by your kindness during this difficult time.
We have just been informed that Brian has been diagnosed with stage 4 #cancer
We have decided to start a GoFundMe to help support Brian and his family with the financial burden of medical expenses during this season”.

A quotation from Molly Ivins

I just finished with nine months of treatment for cancer. First they poison you, then they mutilate you, then they burn you. I’ve had more fun. And when it’s over, you’re so glad that you’re grateful to absolutely everyone. And I am. The trouble is, I’m not a better person. I was in great hopes that confronting my own mortality would make me deeper, more thoughtful. Many lovely people sent books on how to find a more spiritual meaning in life. My response was, “Oh, hell, I can’t go on a spiritual journey — I’m constipated.”

Molly Ivins (1944-2007) American writer, political columnist [Mary Tyler Ivins]

I have been away from the Internet for at least a couple months. I came to quickly check my feeds and I am sad to have found report of the passing away of a very cool hacker, Thom Miller, known by the handle, Retro Guy. According to his wife Kaylen Miller, Thom died about two weeks ago from pancreatic cancer. He had a years-long struggle with cancer and multiple therapies and surgeries. During all the time of his illness he continued to hack away providing network access and software updates absolutely free to his user base. He was a strong believer in the value of open and decentralized communication for all. His software is simple and awesome, and useful for censorship-resistant communication. (https://gitlab.com/rslight-public/rocksolid-light)

Thom, known as Retro Guy, created the Rocksolid Light NNTP forums and server software. He served the hacker community as a free speech advocate and provider of free speech communication networking. He refused to censor opinions that he found offensive or stupid on the principle of the golden rule. He endured a lot of annoyances to provide service for many. Thom maintained the software for years giving web-based NNTP access to countless users. Thom was always helpful and patient with users needing assistance, even when he was feeling ill and suffering. He pushed through his pain to serve others with something he believed was a necessary tool and blessing for the general public.

I am sad to learn of Thom's passing. He will be missed and remembered. I will remember him by continuing to run his software.
