In an experiment from before, patients suffering from diabetes type one were injected with the tuberculosis vaccine twice within a month time frame. The results revealed that the dangerous T cells were eliminated, and in some of these people, insulin started secreting on its own.
These result that the BCG vaccine has been showing especially thrilled Dr. Denise Faustman, director of the Massachusetts General Hospital Immunobi
