  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

idk, i was vaccinated, i didn't join the craziness that they wanted to put me vaccines every 6 months but i did once.
but there are supposedly doctors, that said they (mrna) vaccines caused harm
Here's the thing; a LOT of things "cause harm". Eating too much salmon could "cause harm". Many things cause harm.

The question is a matter of "comfort with risk" and a good understanding of the likelihood of risk.

The harm caused by vaccines was from a sore shoulder to (apparently) "death".
Sounds terrible. Until you consider the likelihood of these risks.
In the end, for major health events, there are MANY MANY drugs that were far more risky and have greater likelihood of those major events.

"Cures don't make money".
Well that's just silly.

Please tell me you aren't blaming the folks who manufacture, tested and created that radiation treatment for your family getting sick (or relapsing). Because they had NOTHING to do with that.

Cancer comes back.
Cancer is aggressive.
Blame cancer NOT the people creating drugs to fight it.

Death rates from EVERY.KIND.OF.CANCER are dropping because of the research and treatments being made by scientists and corporations.

Nobody is being forced to take chemo but they know it's the BEST way to fight cancer; despite the after affects. But the other option is death.
think about it though if I am cured then I pay one time. On the other hand when my father got cancer the first time ( He has sense lost his battle after a relapse, but anyway fifteen years ago I believe it was $4,500 every time he got a chemo treatment did that 12 times; whereas if someone is cured let us just say the cure cost 10k well that is less than 6X what was paid 15 YEARS ago just for chemo no other treatments not the operation not the long term side effects and CERTAINLY not the cost of the relapse that ended up getting him. Which makes more money? Treatments are different than cures. A cure means the person no longer has it makes money one time a TREATMENT means the condition is managed ( maybe) and you have to keep doing it and doing it and doing it in a world focused on greed the powers that be do not mind treatments but they do not want cures.

Note that is different than saying that the "average Joe" working the research does not want a cure.

Right, but they did better than patients in the control group, who also were receiving an immune checkpoint inhibitor.
Yes. What was the p value. Was it highly significant?

You should read it. I'm pretty sure it links to the study itself. The article is suggesting it was not significant.

After controlling for 39 covariables with Cox proportional hazards regression, including clinical stage, histology, steroid use, performance status, mutation status, comorbidities and treatment year, we found that receipt of a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine within 100 days of initiation of ICI was associated with significantly improved median OS (20.6 months versus 37.3 months) and 3 year OS (30.8% versus 55.7%, adjusted hazard ratio (HRadj = 0.51, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.37–0.71, P < 0.0001)
