Experts have developed a vaccine which could be used to block the progress of lung cancer. A small study has suggested it could delay the recurrence of tumours in patients with the most common form of cancer.

Non-small cell lung cancer accounts for three quarters of cases of the disease in the UK.

Doctors said the research, published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute was "encouraging".

I wonder if the Government will allow it to be released... or maybe I should say I wonder if the Pharmaceutical company will? I mean they are makeing a fortune and a half on cancer "medicin" I would doubt they would want to release a cure.

Anyhow It is great news.. rock on!
 
If its not dangerous I don't have any doubt in my mind it will be released. Not only because its public knowledge, but also theres no one government or pharmacuetical company the world over to prevent it.
 
Well, that's awsome. I don't really know why smoking was so "hip" (lol) in the first place. Tried it once. Feels like your throat is on fire. Don't know why people do it but hey, that's alright with me.

Hmmmm
/me has smokes less than 1 cigarette and was six for a week, I dont think ill smoke again.
 
yeah your first few smokes suck and then you start getting a little nicotine buzz when you smoke and it lasts for about a year or so then bam! your hooked and the buzz goes away and the overpowering throat snot sets in and you can't breathe :(
