The body itself is recruited to kill the cancer, rather than relying on medicines.The process leaves healthy cells untouched, unlike chemotherapy, which kills healthy tissue and causes debilitating symptoms. NHS England's national cancer director, Dame Cally Palmer, said cancer vaccines being trialled could mark a huge step in treating the disease.There are also personalised vaccines which are designed specifically for an individuals cancer, based on their genetics.The challenges with personalised vaccines and other hugely advanced cancer therapies is they are very expensive to develop - and the question is whether the NHS will be able to afford such therapies when they come to fruition.https://www.thesun.co.uk/health/30417145/cancer-vaccine-stops-tumou rs-growing-advanced-disease/ Based on the text, what reading strategy would be most effective to identify the main idea about the new cancer therapies discussed? ✂️ a) Ignoring all technical terms to avoid confusion. ✂️ b) Focusing only on the first and last sentences of each paragraph. ✂️ c) Scanning for specific details about the side effects of chemotherapy. ✂️ d) Skimming the text for general understanding to grasp the overall concept of new cancer therapies. ✂️ e) Reading each word carefully to understand the exact meaning of "personalised vaccines."
