washingtonmike Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 I've found only this scant information about a new trial using the common cold virus. Thought I would share it.

Cathy Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Interesting... I read a while back (in the Guardian I think) about a trial in Sweden using virus's as a way of treating cancer generally (not just pancreatic). They quoted some historical (possibly anecdotal?) evidence where people have caught various kinds of virus and then found themselves "cured" of cancer.So, this is an interesting development!!Cathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
