Stem cell cure for blindness tested – BBC News
Surgeons in London have used human embryonic stem cells in a pioneering attempt to cure blindness. Cells derived from a donated early embryo were implanted into the retina of a 60-year-old woman with age-related macular degeneration – the most common cause of blindness in the UK.
Fergus Walsh reports.

The state of ceasefire talks between the US and Iran has been thrown into question, after American forces launched fresh strikes …
source
The government of Iran has restored some access to the internet this week, after a lengthy blackout imposed on and off, for most of this year. Many Iranians are celebrating the move, which has allowed some people to contact friends and family members abroad for the first time in weeks. It could also be a lifeline for Iranians who depend on digital platforms to earn a living.
There is speculation that the move could be intended to show US President Donald Trump that the regime is willing to make some compromises at home.
But digital monitoring groups say the level of internet access is still poorer than it was before Tehran imposed its blackouts, first as a response to mass protests in January, and again at the start of the war with the US and Israel. Access to some sites is still blocked and analysts say two-factor authentication is not available in Iran, impeding many people’s access to platforms like Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp.
Reha Kansara, from the BBC’s Global Disinformation Unit, tells us what restrictions Iranians still face, how people are trying to get around them, and how this partial restoration of internet access could play into the ceasefire talks between Tehran and Washington.

The public health risk from the current Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo has been raised from “high” to “very high” by the World Health Organization (WHO).
In an update on Friday, WHO head Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus also said the risk in the wider region in Africa was “high”, but it remained “low” globally.
The rare species of Ebola, known as Bundibugyo, has no proven vaccine and kills about a third of those infected. So far, the outbreak centred on DR Congo has resulted in 177 suspected deaths and 750 suspected cases.
It comes as scientists at Oxford University in the UK are developing a new vaccine that could be ready for clinical trials within two to three months.

Warning: contains details of alleged sexual offences and misconduct
Senior staff on Married at First Sight UK had an “unhealthy” focus on whether cast members were having sex, former workers on the show have told BBC News.
Producers would deliberately try to make contestants angry or upset for the sake of generating watchable drama, they say.
The former workers on the Channel 4 show have spoken to the BBC following a Panorama investigation into Married at First Sight UK (MAFS UK). Two former cast members say they were raped by their on-screen partners, and a third alleged a non-consensual sex act. Their on-screen partners have denied all the allegations against them.
Lawyers for CPL, the production company which makes MAFS UK, say the latest allegations are from a small minority of former workers, and the company’s “commitment to welfare… is evidenced by the high consecutive return rate of crew across the MAFS series”.
Channel 4 says contributor welfare is “always our primary concern across all productions”.

Using stem cells from the abortion industry is criminal and I don't trust a damn thing after the fear mongering with covid by Big Pharma, AMA, WHO and the media narrative propaganda scheme. Way more people have been harmed from taking experimental money making vaccines then from the fake COVID scare. Flu statistics went to zero which kills people every year and were switched to COVID so hospital could receive government money to push the new expensive COVID clot shots…

I feel so bad for people suffering with macular degeneration.
My 81 yo mother is suffering with it since her 60s and I tell you the majority of us take our vision for granted.
I PRAY these doctors and researchers are successful.
I cannot imagine losing my vision, it is everything we do, literally.

Through conventionally available options, there is no definitive cure to reverse macular degeneration. Alternative treatment regime with stem cell therapy for macular degeneration and stem cell therapy for stargardt disease at Advancells, Stem cell therapy center is therefore gaining prominence in medical field. Stem cell therapy for macular degeneration provides a potential promise of angiogenesis and tissue damage reversal by tissue regeneration and rejuvenation.

This clinical trial is currently being held at two sites in the United States. I was a participant at one of them. The criteria for eligibility is very steep. After six months my mother and I were still the only ones they would “except“. Under their standards, my surgery was a success. It has been one year and I have regained no vision in the eye where they stem cells were injected. I am healthier than most people which is why I was excepted. I have a late stage for retinitis pigmentosa. My son is very young and has it too, which is why I took this chance for hopes that he may not have to ever enter late stage blindness. Personally, in my opinion, this study was conducted somewhat and ethically and they were always referring to Stem cell department at “product“. Just like any other medication, or drug. The testing they put me through was unbearable, and was not what they had presented in the beginning or what I had agreed to. It took me about seven months before I had to officially quit the study… I can handle a lot, I am no wuss , But the constant dilation numbing drops and eight hour long tests or very damaging to the small amount of vision that I have left. Such a shame, I was so hopeful and ended up so disappointing. There Hass to be something better out there.… Sorry for any typos I use voice text

– Scientist K.E Anaekwe : Blindness is though – My advice to anyone sensing its onset – – U need to speedup ur growth pathology – spend 30% of ur sleeping nights pointing due south strongly bonded to mother earth (on a very thing matras or on the ground) – then spend the other 70% night rest sleeping pointing east –
