why do they call it a vaccine, its nothing like that...
there's probably a reason evolution didnt put the immune system on permanent "amber alert" as they call it in the article
> The research team in the US does not think the immune system should be permanently dialled up and think such a vaccine should be used to compliment rather than replace current vaccines
True though there is the theory that it was unnecessary for the immune system to regulate itself in some ways because we were full of parasites.
Isn’t Amber alert a missing child? Wouldn’t you say like DEFCON three or something?
>The effect lasted for around three months in animal experiments.
It would just be temporary, but there is likely trade offs.
One of the things I do worry about is glasses. Is there a reason why we correct vision? There's probably a reason evolution made some of us see the world in a blur. Likewise with therapy - maybe killing yourself is like cell apoptosis. Many body cells are supposed to choose to die when they no longer function well. It's a good thing. That's often the problem with scientists: "They were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should".
Until we find out why nature made it so some of us kill ourselves maybe we shouldn't fuck with it? Remember Chesterton's Fence.
Are you wildly speculating or do you have a source with research backing up your claim evolution got it perfectly right?
I personally look forward to every innovation that potentially improves our baseline.

Amber alert means something different than the author thinks ...
