The 'Telegraph' is reporting that they may have found a cure for Melanoma or skin cancer!



This is a swim related story especially if you swim in Southern California where the UV index reaches well "over 9,000" in the summer.

Buyer beware. Though the statistics for recovery are really promising, it's not for sale yet.

From the Telegraph:

"... A vaccine being tested in the UK has helped been shown to help some patients fully recover from melanoma, even in its advanced stages.

It attacks tumour cells, leaving healthy cells undamaged and carries agents that boost the body's response to skin cancer. ..."

Really neat statistics follow that paragraph.
