...antibodies into mosquitoes, and you lock the disease up there and prevent it from infecting us. Sounds good, but how do you implement such a strategy? You can hardly vaccinate the mosquitoes themselves. Instead, you put the AnAPN1 into their food source: us. A mosquito that bites an inoculated person would pick up the antibodies and then be sidelined from the malaria-transmission game...
...make a TBV more more attractive, then, epidemiologists do not plan to administer it by itself. Rather, it would be given along with a traditional immunity-conferring vaccine. "Not a single person thinks that you should give a transmission-blocking vaccine alone," says Dinglasan. "You'd give it in combination." (See the top 10 scientific discoveries...
...disease is going to be not just controlled but snuffed out entirely. "We're working towards eventual eradication," explains Dr. Ashley Birkett, director of preclinical research and development at PATH MVI. "It requires a long-term vision, and we really think a vaccine that can block transmission from one person to another is going to be a critical tool."(See TIME's Pictures of the Week...
...midst of depression, that's the scariest thing - it seems that you're going to feel like that forever. The pain created by depression kills almost 1 million people a year. It almost killed me, and it did kill my aunt. If I can give just one person hope that there's an end to depression, that it is treatable, then that made it worth it for me to write the book.

...Lancet making the audacious claim that the tools already exist to end the AIDS epidemic. Doctors have long noted that antiretrovirals - the drugs commonly used to treat HIV - are so successful at suppressing the number of viruses in an infected patient's blood that they can render a person no longer contagious. Using mathematical models, the researchers claimed that universal HIV testing followed by the immediate treatment of newly infected patients with antiretroviral drugs could eliminate the disease from even the most heavily infected populations within 10 years...
