Oaxacan scientist, Dr. Eva Ramón Gallegos, has made a significant breakthrough in medicine by completely eliminating the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) in 29 patients using an innovative technique.
This remarkable achievement marks a significant advancement in the fight against cervical cancer.
Tumblr media
Mexican scientist Eva Ramón Gallegos implemented an innovative technique known as photodynamic therapy, a non-invasive treatment that could become an effective method to prevent this disease.
It should be noted that the photodynamic therapy implemented by the researcher is not solely directed against HPV, but it is also usable for eliminating premalignant lesions at very early stages, even before they evolve into invasive cancer.
Mexican Pride 
Eva Ramón Gallegos is a researcher at the National School of Biological Sciences at the National Polytechnic Institute (IPN) where she presented the results of this pilot study. It involves applying a drug called delta-aminolevulinic acid to the cervix, which converts into protoporphyrin, a fluorescent substance that accumulates in damaged cells to eliminate them with a special laser, without the risk of destroying healthy cells around them.
Tumblr media
According to the first phase of the study, HPV was eliminated in 85% of patients who had the virus without lesions, and there was an 85% efficacy in patients with HPV and premalignant lesions.
In a second phase, the Human Papillomavirus was eliminated in 100% of patients without lesions, and reduced by 64.3% in those with premalignant lesions. Patients who did have lesions but no HPV showed a treatment effectiveness of 57.2%.
“Unlike other conventional treatments, this technique only eliminates damaged cells and does not affect healthy structures,” she emphasized.

unfortunately this is very misleading but its not all bad. so no, they have not found a cure for hpv. the virus is still incurable, for the love of god get vaccinated and if you have a cervix, get your regular pap smear please. even if there was a cure, they cant give it to you if you dont know you have it!
so Eva Ramón Gallegos is actually a huge name in the fight against hpv. in 2005 she published her teams work on a new faster and cheaper way to detect hpv, and chances are when you get a pap smear done now, they are using her method to find it. in 2017, she started her work on photodynamic therapy, which is already used in the treatment of the cancer that is the RESULT of hpv.
she actually has published ANOTHER article this year about her research! i would highly recommend giving it a look if you are so inclined, she is incredibly brilliant and deserves more light on her work. but yes, unfortunately, this is not an outright cure, it is however a very effective Treatment of cancer that can save thousands of lives. there is also treatment for the virus itself, an antiviral regimen. however we still must spread knowledge about hpv in order for any of this to count.
so please, talk to your doctor about getting the vaccine. even if you dont have a uterus, you can still carry the virus and pass it on to a partner. get the vaccine, get regular pap smears if applicable. they do suck, so ask your doctor about local anesthetic and if your insurance will cover it because THAT IS ABSOLUTELY A THING THAT CAN BE APPLIED. there is no reason they can't use numbing agents and pain killers!!!! take your own pain killers before hand as well, but just know that it is for your best interest to get these done.
Tumblr media
After 20 painstaking years of research, Eva Ramon Gallegos, a Mexican scientist has finally developed a cure to eliminate 100 percent human papillomavirus and prevent the spread of cervical cancer among women. (x) (x) (x) Y’all they cured HPV
Yet Trump’s America wouldn’t want you to hear about this nor help it go mainstream

¡A muchas qué celebrar!
Celebrar a mujeres científicas, como Eva Ramón Gallegos, del IPN, que luego de 20 años de estudios moleculares, eliminó el virus del papiloma ...

Let's also add the achievement in 2018 by Mexican scientist, Eva Ramón Gallegos, PhD, whose lab found a new way to combat HPV and accompanying cancers by using photodynamic therapy along with a light sensitive drug that targets HPV cells.
Cinco de Mayo is about to start, so let's make some things clear:
Tumblr media
Hello there! Diego here! (That… that’s seriously my name.) As some of you may know, I am of Mexican origin, and I would like to make a few things clear about May 5th you may or may not be aware about.
1. Cinco de Mayo is NOT the date of the Independence of Mexico.
Tumblr media
That’s right! Mexico celebrates its independence in September 16th, or more likely, the night of September 15th, when traditionally they make the traditional Grito de Independencia by midnight, which is a reenactment of the legend of the night revolutionary priest Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla called mass in 1810 for the people to rebel against the Spanish government.
Tumblr media
“Cinco de Mayo” also known as “La Batalla de Puebla” (The Battle of Puebla) is a commemoration of a victory in the battle against French invaders that arrived from the port of the state of Veracruz. Albeit not a strategically decisive battle on the war, it is important on national pride as a moment in which a tiny new country without virtually any funds by the time of 1860s defeated such a super powerful army which were the French.
Tumblr media
2. “Sombreros”.
Tumblr media
Ah yes.
The “sombrero”.
Just to put it straight: Sombrero just means “hat” in Spanish; at least Mexican Spanish. We tend to call sombrero to any kind of hat, that is if we are not using the word “gorro/gorra” alternatively.
The “sombreros” you usually see in every single stereotype you may imagine are based a mixture of the charro outfit and the way poor proletariats would dress around the dawn of the 20th century whom also were an emblem of the Mexican Revolution of 1910. (Another national celebration that goes in November 20th.) Slavery was already illegal in Mexico, but these people were exploited in a disguised system in which the workers were paid (miserably) and all of their expenses would be controlled in stores they were only allowed to spend at; those stores were also owned by the proprietors of the land they worked at.
Tumblr media
The stereotype has been so reflected in so many places inside and outside the border it has even been reclaimed by the Mexican people themselves.
“Oh, so is it okay for me to wear one?”
No.
By the way when I mentioned “charros”, I mean a traditional type of horsemen that follow their own set of etiquettes and styles, and it’s also practiced by women who are not only beautiful but also super badass.
Tumblr media
3. Maracas.
Tumblr media
I SERIOUSLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT’S THE DEAL WITH MEXICAN STEREOTYPES AND MARACAS TO BE HONEST.
LIKE, THEY ARE USED IN A FEW CULTURES OF MEXICO SUCH AS THE YAQUIS, BUT OTHER THAN THAT IT REALLY DOESN’T HAVE MUCH OF A CULTURAL BACKGROUND FOR MEXICO. ALMOST ANY OTHER COUNTRY IN LATIN AMERICA, BUT NOT MUCH IN MEXICO.
THEY ARE MORE OF A BRAZILIAN THING.EDIT: Actually no, they are not Brazlian at all either.
Much like the sombrero, if you “went to Mexico” (Tijuana, Cancún, Mazatlán, Rocky Point) and they gave you maracas with vivid colors on them, there is absolutely no cultural importance behind it as souvenir of Mexico. Mexicans love to point at, laugh, and exploit the cultural obliviousness of tourists. Especially American tourists.
*cough*
4. The mustache.
Tumblr media
This one is a bit strange, albeit kind of true in some regards.
The mustache is an international symbol of masculinity, and Mexico is a country full of machismo, albeit “caballerosidad” is also one of the qualities in the Mexican etiquette which involves respecting the autonomy and individual identity of women, always approach to a non-violent solution, and a general attitude of politeness to both men and women; that said it is not impossible for a Mexican to be misogynistic as well.
ANYWAY, the mustache is kind of a downhill-snowball stereotype that may have started in just seeing many Mexicans having a mustache, but so do a LOT of American males as well, so uhhhh… it’s a very strange label to pin on Mexicans over all.
5. Tequila.
Tumblr media
I actually don’t mind if you drink tequila. You kinda support the economy of my country and it’s an actual cultural thing that I like it when it’s spread around.
Just remember that it is NOT drunk with a worm in it. That is mezcal. Its like tequila’s wilder cousin. And no, it has no mescaline.
6. Other stereotypes.
Tumblr media
Sugar skulls are a cool thing, I guess. No, they have absolutely nothing to do with Cinco de Mayo, they are part of Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) which is celebrated in November 1st.
“Do not drink the water” is a weird stereotype I have heard. I would not simply recommend you to drink untreated tap water anywhere. Period. We have water purifiers everywhere.
Mexico is what I call a “second world country”. It is not as developed and advanced as the United States, but it IS civilized in a great way we count with continuous technological developments and lots and lots of progressist enthusiasts.
Mexico is not proud of drug trafficking. It’s an extremely serious problem that has the entire country terrorized and I am really exhausted of all the attention they get from dumb Hollywood movies rather than the real Mexico. Do not talk about drugs. Do not talk about narcos. This is a very delicate topic that many people overlook the impact it’s had with Mexican people in their identity. Please.
Tumblr media
I persist. Do not, seriously, DO NOT associate Mexican people with drug dealers, drug lords, “narcos”, or any other extension. If you seriously STILL wonder “what the big deal is”, I dare you to Google “narcos” on the image search and look at all the horrible things they do to the innocents. (It’s seriously fucked up and triggering with blood, gore, body horror shit.)
Mexican people have contributed with some groundbreaking contributions to science and technology and the way we are leading our lives. 
> Mario J. Molina is a chemist who discovered the causes of ozone depletion in the atmosphere. > Guillermo González Camarena patented the first trichromatic TV color transmitter in 1940. 8 years before Peter Carl Goldmark presented it to CBS and took most of the credit. > Luis Ernesto Miramontes co-developed “the pill”. Props. > Andrés Manuel del Río discovered vanadium in 1801 which is used to strengthen steel further and is applied from bicycles and hardware tools, to dental implants and jet engines.
Yes, Mexicans are actually laid back. No, they are not inherently lazy.
Mexican people are culturally masters of improvisation and creativity, this leads them to engineer creative solutions to everyday problems. Just felt like sharing this fact.
Ok so this is all I have right off the bat, and I wish you a happy Cinco de Mayo. Have fun, get drunk, party on; I don’t care, we don’t care. Just have these things on mind.
TL;DR: Please do not do/say anything racist.

Mexico’s National Polytecnic Institute (IPN) announced that a team led by Eva Ramón Gallegos had developed a non-invasive treatment that eliminated the human papillomavirus in 29 women in Mexico City as well as in 420 women in the states of Oaxaca and Veracruz in past experiments. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the human papillomavirus, known as HPV for short, is the most common sexually transmitted infection in the U.S., with about 79 million Americans currently infected with some form of the virus. Around 14 variants of HPV can lead to a patient’s developing cervical cancer, and the CDC reported that almost 12,000 women in the U.S. are diagnosed with cervical cancer every year. Ramón Gallegos’ work, which she has carried out for 20 years, involves the use of photodynamic therapy, in which a drug (referred to as a “photosensitizer”) is injected into the HPV patient’s bloodstream. The patient is later exposed to light through the use of a laser, or fiber-optic cables. Now that photodynamic treatment is being pioneered to treat viruses and carcinogens, hopefully it will receive further attention and funding for more rigorous and alternative applications.

This scientific achievement was accomplished through photodynamic therapy, a non-invasive technique that seems to be an efficient method to prevent malignant neoplasm, which is the second cause of death among Mexican women.
The scientists from the National Biological Sciences School explained that she has studied the effects of photodynamic therapy for 20 years and said she was treated 420 patients in Oaxaca and Veracruz with this method, as well as 29 women in Mexico City.
“During the first stage of the investigation, when it was used to treat women in Oaxaca and Veracruz, the results were encouraging. The treatment was also very positive when applied to women in Mexico City, which opens the possibility of making the treatment more efficient,” she said.
She also explained that besides eradicating HPV, the main cause behind cervical cancer, photodynamic therapy is also used to eliminate premalignant lesions of cervical cancer in its first stages. The results of her investigation show that she was able to eradicate HPV in 100% of the patients who had the virus but had no premalignant lesions, 64.3% in women with HPV and lesions, and 57.2% in women who had lesions but don't have HPV.
Among her collaborators are Marco Antonio Amoroso Hernández, Ángel Laguna Cancino, Dora Estela Jovel Galdamez, Bárbara Carrión Solano, Guadalupe Balderas Martínez, Eduarda Parra Rossana, Inés Castellanos Oliveros, Rosa Linda Bello Leiva, María Eugenia Melo Petrone, Gumaro Narciso Morales and Petrona Jiménez Martínez.
