I&#x27;ve seen BCG described as cave man immuno-therapy for bladder cancer and other apps... it will be interesting to see how it works for diabetes and MS.<p>Presumably someone has looked at rates of those types of diseases in Eastern Europe, where BCG was used a a vaccine for TB for years.... but I have no idea if it worked preventitively.
