Breast Cancer Vaccine To Go On Trial Within A Year All women over 40 could be given a jab that prevents them getting breast cancer, a scientist has claimed.

If successful, researchers say GPs could offer it to women before they reach their mid-40s, when the risk of breast cancer starts to rise steeply.
Treatment that kills tumours with heat could provide prostate cancer cure The drug could wipe out up to 70 per cent of breast cancers, saving more than 8,000 lives a year in Britain alone. Dr Vincent Tuohy, the jab's creator, said it promised to offer "substantial protection" and raised the prospect of wiping out the disease altogether.
"We truly believe that a preventive breast cancer vaccine will do to breast cancer what the polio vaccine has done to polio," he said. "We think it will provide substantial protection."Our view is that breast cancer is a completely preventable disease." The vaccine is based on protein called alpha-lactalbumin that lurks in most breast cancer tumours.
In tests on mice bred to develop breast cancers by the age of 10 months, the drug was found to keep them free of tumours, the journal Nature Medicine reports. The jab stimulates the immune system, priming it to destroy alpha-lactalbumin as it appears, and so stopping tumours from forming. The drug also harnessed the power of the immune system to shrink pre-existing tumours by up to half, suggesting it could be used as a treatment as well as a vaccine.

Will it contain tissue from aborted babies like many other vaccines? My grandma died at 69 and my aunt at 46. I don’t think I will get this vaccine. Read Dr. David Servan-Schrieber’s Anti-Cancer. He gives medically proven ways of preventing and shriking tumors without being injected with murdered babies.
In David McCullough’s biography of John Adams, he described Adams’ daughter’s battle with breast cancer. Going from that absolute horror to the possibility of a simple vaccine is incredible.
Watched my Mom die from breast cancer,took 2 years for it to wear her down and kill her.I’d urge you to consider the vaccine if it comes available.No one should die like that...
One major cause of breast cancer is low vitamin D. Most Americans do not get enough.
“One major cause of breast cancer is low vitamin D. Most Americans do not get enough.”
I’m starting to think that an important contributor to cancer and perhaps other disease processes is bulls**t. Americans have been getting way too much.
Again, what are the ingredients? Nobody should die by being torn to bits in their mother’s womb.
Tissue from aborted babies?????? Where did you hear this?
Go to any vaccine brand website and check their ingredients. Anything that has human diploid cells has tissue from aborted babies. http://cogforlife.org/ has a chart that was utd November 2009. If you look at it, you will notice that there are no chicken pox, polio, or Hep A vaccines available in the US without aborted fetal tissue.
