Yes, I'm aware of the Blalock connection, and that this approach has been under observation for quite some time. However, this is the first human trial and, as such, caught my attention(months ago). I was hoping that someone might have some info about this study that I have missed in my searches... ...r.e. Squalene: State of arousal of immune system may not matter much if this strategy works in the manner intended. Indeed, if this molecule didn't get the job done other than when the immune system is in a state of quiescence, it wouldn't be much good anyway. Not holding my breath either!...Thanks for responding, ....patrick

That's not entirely true, Patrick. Sure, if it helps with MG, great. But people with MG can still be open to other AIs, which squalene can "wake up," so to speak. This therapy only targets MG.

Others are working on different treatments, but the cost often outweighs the benefits for those in larger institutions for this relatively rare disease.

And the health "machine" goes so damn slowly. On purpose, I believe.

Yes, that is a good point... I was speaking only of the vaccine's effect on MG. ...p
