As a transplant recipient who relies on massive doses of immune suppressing medications to keep my donors organ safe I can't help but hope some day this can be used to help people like me.
-
As someone who suffered crippling allergies earlier in life who was allergic to literally every single thing I was tested on and who still has an autoimmune disorder, this is great news.
-
As someone with a chronic autoimmune that is not curable and caused by an inflammation something like that would be life changing for me.
-
This is so cool! Imagine a day when doctors routinely say things like, "It seems you have diabetes. I'll schedule you for an outpatient liver biopsy next week so we can prepare your Invax-D, you should be fine on that for a couple weeks, then you'll be good to go. Just watch your sugar intake until then, okay?"
-
Helping people who suffer from autoimmune diseases like me is the reason i want to go into biomedical engineering/general biomedical lab work. Its been so hard for me to even figure out what's happening and how to adjust to life with my chronic illnesses, and I want everyone to have proper access to adequate, affordable, and accurate testing. I hope this takes us a step forward, and I hope future generations have it easier in the unknown world of autoimmune disease.
-
Cant wait for them to do this for crohns and colitis. Bit rude to go after my bowels just for existing
-
I hope they do this for Crohns Disease soon as well
-
As a T1D who also has a son and daughter-in-law who are also T1D, this video brought me to tears. Imagine being able to determine the existence of genetic markers for a disease, and tailor a few injections that will prevent a lifetime of suffering! That would be so amazing!
-
My celiac can be defeated....I can't tell you how excited I am... and weeping? I don't know how to feel about this news. But I'm excited to see where this goes
-
I love when my immune system is so good they attack my myelin sheath 🧠
-
YES! This can't come fast enough. I have a terrible case of primary progressive MS which can't even be suppressed (the only medication is Ocrelizumab with the best case outcome of "hey, it'll only get worse with 70% of the speed") and this year has been especially devastating. Having the outlook of walking again in a couple of years is the best christmas present you could give to me.
-
As someone with MS, this could be a game changer in a lot of ways.
-
MS treatment is looking promising. Lucid MS from FSD Pharma just finished Phase 1 human trials and now I learn about these "anti-vaccines" being studied in Germany! Thanks for publishing your souces SciShow team! In 3-5 years maybe I'll be able to walk again!
-
I have several auto immunes. I'm 70, and they've really taken their toll, so it probably won't help me. But for my nieces, friends kids and grands, This would be a wonderful thing 🤞🏽🙏🏽❣️💜💙💜
-
I wonder if this could also help with organ recipients
-
I have MS and this has me is tears, feels like we are so close.
-
That would be a massive advancement in treating or even curing autoimmune diseases!
-
After a few more decades of development and experiments, this would be amazing for lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and Crohn's patients, among other sufferers like those with Hashimoto's thyroiditis.
-
If they don't call this a baccine (back-seen), they're missing a major opportunity.
-
Would LOVE to see an episode of the anime "Cells at Work!" about this. A special ops robot virus breaks into the body and goes through Bond-esque levels of shennanigans all to cross "pancreas" off the Immune Systems Enemies List. Amazing.
