    This is a great story. I'm just sad that it will take China to get thing rolling. Wake up United States legislators!!!

    The article says that Dr. Tuohy will be speaking on May 15 at Hudson high school. That's only 30 minutes from me so I will be there.

    Does this vaccine work for following groups of women?

    a.  women who were pregnant and/or breastfed before.   ie, they have been exposed to this chemical naturally, so may not generate immune response with this vaccine.

    b.  women who planned to get pregnant or breast fed in future.   ie, they run a risk of throwing 

    allergic reaction when they become pregnant and lactating in future.

    that will be my question for him.    There are other vaccine clinical trials.  Vaccine has been promising for a long time, and may yet deliver the goods one day.    I certainly hope so.

    Check out my blog on my thoughts on some of the most promising directions of BC cure, and how patients can help.

    I can see now why Komen refused grants....they would be shooting themselves in the foot by doing so LOL.

    I am so surprised that Dr. Tuohy forgot such an important aspect of his research when he was applying for a grant! Very careless of him indeed.
