Is it Worth Getting Shot?

When we were still young our parents brought us to our pediatricians to have shots of vaccines to prevent certain disease from entering our body. Since babies have weaker immunity against sickness. Now that we’re grown-ups we don’t need to worry about those diseases since we already had shots before to prevent them. Wrong! You may believe nowadays that vaccines are only for babies or kids but the truth about is that vaccine are also essentials even in our adulthood. The reason is that: nobody is immune all disease and some vaccinations need continued follow-up to ensure their efficiency. In fact, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, we become more susceptible to serious diseases caused by common infections as we grow older. Also, the older we get, the greater the chances that our immunity will be worned-off. Doctors say that an injection only hurts as much as a pinprick, and it’s true.

kanzius1.jpgThe world was stunned when an ordinary cancer patient suffering from a form of Leukemia announced that he may have produced a device that could spell a revolutionary approach to cancer treatment. John Kanzius used to be a radio operator and technician turned inventor when he got fed up with chemotherapy and the other types of treatments that are currently available for treating the many forms of cancer. He came up with the idea of using high-power radio waves to kill off cancer cells deep within the human body that promises to be non-invasive. The treatment would have a patient administered with protein attaching compounds that would attach themselves to the cancer cells and only the cancer cells that is loaded with metallic Nano-materials. Radio waves passes through the human body without harming the living tissue and this happens everyday with cosmic radiation on the form of radio waves penetrating and passing thought the human body without any harm done.
