A mouse model still is really not a stage to post news articles. Only 1 in ~100+ drugs that make it past mouse models eventually get approved. And those are replicated findings. As far as I can tell this headline is an un replicated study.
Journalists need clickbait “cancer cure” hopium. But I don’t think it’s very useful. As a chronically ill person myself I’m sick of people sending me those articles about my illness because they think a cure’s on the horizon when well, it’s really unlikely. Which means every time they see me and I’m not magically cured I have to sit through another “what about that miracle drug” convo. I still hope, but I don’t like the misleading hopium journalism seems to love.
I was wading in here to post exactly that XKCD.
We discover hundreds of new compounds that kill cancer cells every year. Perhaps we should only be posting in uplifting news when new drugs are found effective.
Russia has been sowing division around the world, ie. hiring people to commit terror or antisemetic grafiti etc.
The point of this, is that divided societies are less strong, and more vulnerable to being influenced, so they have a higher success rate in promoting pro-russia far right parties.
I heard Mint and Elementary both mentioned a lot for switchers.
Any reason you recommend mint over it?
Never tried either of them myself so just curious.
