Virus therapy shown to destroy tumors in mice
Scientists report that a benign adeno associated virus can cause cancer cells to self destruct by mimicking DNA damage and targeting p53 defects, while normal cells remain unharmed. Experts caution results are far from human trials and delivery to all cancer cells remains a challenge.

Researchers use virus to attack cancer tumors in trials
Scientists test on cancer tumors by introducing a virus to target malignant cells. The approach aims to trigger tumor destruction while minimizing harm to healthy tissue.
Pair of childhood vaccines tied to fever seizures study
A large CDC funded study of 679,942 children finds DTP and MMR vaccines occasionally trigger febrile seizures but show no long term disabilities. Seizure risk is sixfold on the DTP day and threefold eight to fourteen days after MMR, equating to six to nine and twenty five to thirty four additional seizures per 100,000 respectively.
