NEW BUGS TO KILL CANCER

Park, Alice (2005) When bad bugs go good TIME, 52-54


It goes back to the 60's, when oncologists placed a virus or bacterium in a person to kill cancer cells. It worked. The cancer died as did the patient.

Fast forward to now and we have cancer researcher using a mild strain of measles with an insert of a mild form of a deadly bacterium that outwit the immune system, and destroy the malignant cells within. In other words, the cancer is killed without harsh drugs and radiation.

As usual, it is not quite ready for public consumption, but on this strategy, it may not be too long.
