Nicholas DeVito, Assistant Professor in the Division of Medical Oncology at Duke Cancer Institute, shared a post on LinkedIn by Nature Portfolio about a paper by Adam J. Grippin et al. published in Nature:
“I recall hearing multiple ridiculous claims that the COVID vaccine causes cancer. Here is evidence that patients receiving immunotherapy for cancer who received mRNA-based COVID vaccines lived longer than those who were unvaccinated.
We should be doubling down on mRNA vaccines – there is so much potential here. Also, get vaccinated!”
Quoting Nature Portfolio’s post:
“A paper in Nature reports that mRNA vaccines targeting SARS-CoV-2 also sensitize tumours to immune checkpoint inhibitors.
Read the research.”
