WebMD says: “Polio, an infectious disease caused by a virus that lives in the throat and intestinal tract, was once the leading cause of disability in the U.S. Since the introduction of the polio vaccine in 1955, the disease has been eradicated in the U.S.” I can see online nursing programs teaching this definition because it’s not too bad.
Wouldn’t it be such happy news if an important website could spout out something similar about breast cancer?
If may not be too far off, says Cleveland Clinic immunologist Dr. Vincent Tuohy, who has hopes of introducing a breast cancer vaccine within 10 years. He’s got the science on his side, he just needs funding.
Ah, hope.
