It was also noted that while under the Health Act 2006 it is illegal to give out free tobacco in the United Kingdom, Parliament is exempt from this as the Palace of Westminster is a royal palace, and therefore legally exempt from the legislation.

I hear there’s been a potential lung cancer vaccine developed in Cuba. Due to the bullshit US embargo, I wonder if we’ll ever get it if it works.
There’s always something that’ll potentially cure cancer, just out of reach. It’s like cold fusion.
Oh yeah I was very skeptical when I first read about it. Here’s an abstract, from this year, on pubmed, which is run by the NIH. It claims that the treatment is both safe and effective.
Evidence gathered so far has been in trials in Cuba and the United States for sure, probably other countries as well. I do not think it is FDA approved yet, so it’s only being tried on people with stage 3 or 4 cancer who have run out of treatment options. I would love to see a big trial on people where it was caught earlier, I imagine it would be even more effective and could potentially “cure” the cancer.
Wait! It’s a vaccine that you can administer after you already have the condition and it’ll work?!?!
That’s what all the papers that I looked at said. It’s immunotherapy. This is why I’m so excited for them to start trying it on people with less advanced cancer.
I believe there’s chemotherapy to prime the body, then 4 shots in two months and then a booster every month? Maybe it’s wrong to call it a vaccine but that’s what doctors are calling it.
Well, like every other promising cancer treatment I’ve read about, I hope it becomes available to everyone as soon as possible, and that it’s safe and doesn’t lead to I Am Legend.
