    Jarvis: A cancer vaccine is closer than ever (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Scientists are on the cusp of fulfilling a decades-long quest: to use vaccines to teach the immune system to spot and destroy cancer cells. News that an mRNA cancer vaccine developed by Merck & Co. and Moderna Inc. kept melanoma from returning in a large, late-stage trial marks a critical next chapter for a technology beleaguered by post-pandemic political backlash and years of false starts before then. The concept of cancer vaccines has been kicked around for over a century, and in the past 20

    Jarvis: Is lettuce safe? Probably. Will cyclospora spur change? Hopefully. (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    For the last month, Americans have viewed their lunchtime salads or even a single, crisp leaf of iceberg on their burger as a possible threat. Could it harbor cyclospora, the explosive-diarrhea-causing parasite that by early August had sickened thousands, hospitalized hundreds, and led to two deaths? In Michigan, the epicenter of the cyclospora outbreak, cases are on the downturn, yet our national fear persists. It didn’t help that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently widened

    Jarvis: Trump’s vaccine order puts parents in a bind (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    President Donald Trump’s proposed sweeping changes to the childhood vaccine schedule, whether ever actually implemented or not, are yet another affront to public health in the U.S. No new evidence is being offered to justify the proposed overhaul, which arrived via executive order last week and calls for cutting back the number of vaccines children receive and instructing states to review their immunization laws — probably because there is no new data to support it. Instead, the change is being

    Jarvis: No Surprises Act could shock healthcare system (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    When the No Surprises Act took effect in 2022, it was a rare feat of bipartisan problem-solving. The law was meant to prevent a once all-too-common scenario: An insured patient would seek emergency care, only to face financial disaster because one of the providers involved was outside the patient’s insurance network. The law took that problem out of patients’ hands, requiring insurers and out-of-network doctors to settle on a fair payment. That protection has spared millions of Americans from un
