ELI5: Moderna made a cancer vaccine that is custom for every person.
Doctors read the DNA of your tumor, find what makes it unique, then make an mRNA shot that teaches your immune system, “Attack cells that look like this.”
They combine it with Keytruda, a drug that helps stop cancer from hiding from your immune system.
It just succeeded in a Phase 3 melanoma trial.
Not a cure for all cancer. But a pretty huge idea if it works for other cancers too.
@bdefreitas21@jjcoop36 I read it. And while it says “such and such pitch measured at such and such height” it only references the in game graphic in terms of where these measurements are being taken. Which we know the in game graphic is clearly at the catch point.
@bdefreitas21@jjcoop36 Whatever obscure “tech” that is I’d beside the point to me. Baseball is a game of umpires setting a strike zone and pitchers adjusting to it. From what I watched that ump had a slightly low zone and was consistent with it. Sorry it didn’t match up exactly to the tv graphic
@bdefreitas21@jjcoop36 I watched each of those at bats and this graphic just tells me the same thing. They’re charting those based off where the ball was caught not where it crossed the plate.
@bdefreitas21 Bradleyyyy that was a strike. Where it crosses the plate not where the tv graphic slaps a little baseball at the very last moment when it hits the mitt on a nasty slider that the bottom dropped out of
I watch the games for the refs. I collect ref sports cards. I buy ref jerseys. I visited the ref Hall of Fame. I love the refs it’s so fun when it’s focused on them
@gwalkamoly@bdefreitas21 Oh? He went untouched through a parting of the sea? Yeah. He’s always been great at that. What did he do against the Chiefs week 1 when someone actually hits him before his big ass can get moving? Answer is not shit.
