This is CRAZY. The test didn’t meet its endpoint and the study was not designed to assess harm and showed no benefit.

So much media hype about the melanoma vaccine based on a press release. Nice move by Moderna. Free publicity and stock surged without showing any data 🫡.

1⃣ broad-spectrum protection
2⃣ SPF of at least 30
3⃣ water resistance if swimming

Essential read on the deeply FLAWED design of the taxpayer-funded GRAIL Galleri-Medicare study of cancer screening. Its called the "REACH" study but it is more of a GRAB. A veritable shakedown of the American taxpayer.
In their new Forefront article, H. Gilbert Welch argue Barnett S. Kramer argue that, if @CMSGov cannot persuade GRAIL of the importance of randomization and using cancer death as the outcome, then it should cancel their Galleri-Medicare study. bit.ly/4eIowQ1

Its wild how much attention this has received. This technology already exists (has for many years) and in the only RCT looking at effectiveness in melanoma screening it did not improve outcomes in high risk people:

Cool looking robot though...
JUST IN: Skin exams are getting automated.
SquareMind just raised $18M to build a robotic system that scans your entire body and tracks every mole over time.
• Swan robot captures full-body dermoscopic images in minutes
• Tracks new and changing spots across visits
• Replaces spot-check exams with total skin coverage
• Creates a time-series record for earlier melanoma detection
• Plugs directly into dermatology clinics
Robotics is going to reshape healthcare.

🧵1/ Our new study on AI and physician reasoning just came out in @ScienceMagazine. As co-senior author, I'm excited about our findings, and I do think AI will reshape medicine. But after seeing some of the discussions, I'm also worried about how our findings may be misinterpreted.
