Apologies if already posted. I searched...

Possible connection with cancer, parasites, ivermectin.

[George from New England]

Big pharma made sure of this too

[broken_clock]

Interesting. Id rather read about this than Epstein but maybe that explains the timing.

[mitchjackson1972]

So my question is what did the soviets do with the research?

[Jeff Chandler]

. . . striking similarities between parasitic worms and intelligence agencies.

How about the plans for the carburator that gives 80 MPG?

[AuntB]

This is UGLY. We probably don’t know how lucky we are that they keep us ignorant 🥴

[FrankRizzo890]

INB4 “We tried this already, there was nothing to it” response.

> The document, produced in February 1951… <

Stalin was running things back then. And the #1 priority of Soviet scientists was to make Stalin happy. Actual science took a back seat.

Just something to keep in mind.

[Cold Heart]

There was a small Harley Davidson motorcycle with a single, 1” dia. cylinder that got 100mpg. Single carburator

[Whatever Works]

There is a similar “study” being touted online about a parasite causing type 2 diabetes (which can be cured by killing the parasite). A search calls it a scam. I’m no doctor. So, I don’t know.

Ivermectine?

[Justa]

My Puch moped got about 80 mpg 40 years ago.

[HapaxLegamenon]

Which type of cancer?

[Justa]

Ivermectin was discovered in Japanese woodland soil in the 1970s by Satoshi Ōmura of Kitasato University.

[tlozo]

Although the document was declassified more than a decade ago

If its some miraculous information and was declassified more than ten years ago, why is there no cure?

[Reily]

Its more accurate to think of cancer not as a disease but a condition. There are many cancer causing “vectors”.

The primary reason Miracil D (Lucanthone) did not advance as a cancer treatment in the 20th century was its side effect profile, including mutagenicity concerns raised by studies like Hartman et al. (1975), which found hycanthone to be mutagenic in bacterial assays. This led to reduced interest in clinical development for cancer until safer formulations or targeted uses (e.g., Chk1 inhibition) were explored later. (Citation: Hartman, P. E., et al. (1975). “Hycanthone and other antischistosomal drugs: Mutagenicity in bacteria.” Science, 187(4179), 948-949.)

Yes it was, but it is an effective anti parasitic that has shown remarkable effectiveness in treating some cancers which is interesting in light of the Russian Paper.

On the other hand, given the state of Russian biosciences back in the days of Trofim Lysenko not sure how reliable that paper is.

YUGE MONEY at stake.
