On October 25, 2023, they shared the first data from the trial at the European Society for Gene & Cell Therapy’s annual meeting in Brussels, Belgium — but missing from the announcement was any data about whether the therapy worked.
Kinda like when CFLs first dropped and a lot of them were like “this light bulb will last over 80 years!”, when in reality they lasted 2 years.
In reality, at that point, their prototype had been made a year and a half ago and had far outlived the standard incandescent bulb, so they put an assininely huge number on the packaging.
unrelated to the original topic but man, i fucking love LEDs.
they just politely sip electricity and have a huge lifespan, then when they do kick the bucket it’s not unlikely you can fix them by swapping a capacitor or something.
Seems like the main point of this report is that none of the people who’d been given the treatment suffered any ill effects, and that the “stuff” of said treatment remained detectable in them after four weeks. They promise to have additional data in 2024.
Wow, this seems pretty big if it works
I’m not an expert, but that seems like the most important data to know.
And we wont “know” for a very long time. If the virus returns after lying dormant for 5 years its not a “cure” just a highly effective therapy.
It’s a thing I forget a lot.

6 months later, the prototype burned out.
