Diabetes May Be Reversed By Long-Used Vaccine For TB

- robbiep 14y agoFinance media should not report on medicine? -- blah blah blah nuanced point nuanced point nuanced point still it is interesting. But BCG is a horrible 'vaccine' that isn't all that effective and complicates screening for TB so I would imagine the aim of any eventual research to spill from this would be TNF inhibitors, of which we already have bucketloads for treating Rheumatoid Arthritis, Chron's disease etc etc. Oh, and this won't cure someone with full-blown type 1 (i.e. zero insulin production) - they have already lost their beta cells and to the best of my knowledge won't grow back if they have all been destroyed
