[QUOTE="Hoping4Cure, post: 1440438, member: 393050"] Let's be careful here about declarations of people being vaccinated routinely being off topic. You don't know this is true. In fact, I've seen research showing that countries where routine childhood vaccinations are still performed have lower incidence of type 1 diabetes, and furthermore, that there is a correlation (who knows about causation) between low-grade latent TB infection and type 1 diabetes. (as seen in pancreases harvested from cadavers). I write this as someone who no longer believes BCG will likely form the basis for a cure, but let's not eliminate facts as off-side when really, there is actual scientific evidence showing that it may indeed be quite pertinent. Type 1 incidence in western countries is rising, not falling. Is it a coincidence that BCG vaccination isn't commonly given any more? We just don't know for sure yet. TB may be partly to blame.
