Type 1 diabetes and tuberculosis vaccine

This article showed up in my newspaper this morning, I don’t know how many of you know about this research, I didn’t, it sounds promising. Hope the link works. If not I’ll try again.

Faustman’s research has been known to the diabetes online community for a long time. Stupidly, the FDA required phase I trials for something that has been safely used in TB patients for ages now, so it’s slowing down the rest of the trial.

I figured most here have known about it, just so involved in daily management for my son, I don’t spend much time investigating ongoing research for the cure. Yay, another reason to resent FDA!! :slight_smile:
