Why We ’re Hearing More About Lyme Disease This Summer
It’s a common ritual of summer: with the warm weather comes more outdoor activities, and more encounters with disease-spreading pathogens. A summer favorite? In the U.S., the Lyme disease-carrying blacklegged tick. And with a new batch of celebrities reporting infections this summer—model Bella Hadid, singer Shania Twain, and actress Riley Keough—it’s worth taking stock of what we know about how prevalent Lyme disease really is, and the best way to protect ourselves from the tiny ticks that spread it.

Cancer-infecting virus & #039;warms up & #039; cold tumors and improves immunotherapy
Equipping cancer-infecting, or oncolytic, viruses with tumor-inhibiting genetic cargo stimulates the immune system and helps immunotherapy to shrink or completely clear aggressive tumors in mice, according to a new study in the Journal of Experimental Medicine led by University of Pittsburgh and UPMC researchers. The results pave the way for clinical trials combining oncolytic viruses with immunotherapy.

1-Hour Lung Protection Protocol Stops Viruses Cold
The simple act of breathing constantly exposes your lungs to all kinds of viruses, bacteria, particles of pollution, and other harmful foreign matter.
And that means this overlooked organ has evolved its own special immune system to protect itself.
Studies show that, like the rest of your body, your lungs operate two interactive protective systems — an adaptive and an innate immune system.
The innate immune system in your lungs is made up of armies of T cells, B cells, and NK cells, like leukocytes, phagocytes, and macrophages.
These cells, which are released by the alveoli and airway epithelial cells, identify foreign i...
