| 0:00.0 | A vaccine to prevent Alzheimer's and the remedy for spiritual blindness. |
| 0:05.9 | This is Dr. Jim Denison's The Daily Article podcast for Thursday, June 20th, 2019. |
| 0:14.4 | Researchers announced recently that they were working on a vaccine to prevent Alzheimer's disease. |
| 0:19.6 | A team from the University of New Mexico |
| 0:21.4 | had been developing the concept for five years and has begun testing their vaccine on mice. |
| 0:27.6 | Mice with Alzheimer's disease were injected with the vaccine and then given a series of maze-like |
| 0:32.6 | tests. The mice that received the vaccine performed much better than those that didn't. |
| 0:38.1 | However, the vaccine has not yet been shown to work in humans. |
| 0:41.7 | The developers are hoping to raise the two million needed to create a clinical vaccine that they can test in people. |
| 0:48.5 | Once they produce a vaccine that's safe for humans, they will have to submit it to the FDA for approval. |
| 0:54.8 | This could take another five years. Imagine a scenario where the researchers perfected their vaccine but didn't |

| 1:05.9 | that could have been prevented. In such a scenario, who would be to blame for their illness? The Lord declared through |
| 1:13.3 | his prophet and Isaiah 43-8, bring out the people who are blind, yet have eyes, who are deaf, |
| 1:19.6 | yet have ears. When I read this statement recently, I noted that those who have eyes but are blind |
| 1:25.5 | may not know that they are sightless. Those who have ears but are blind may not know that they are sightless. Those who have |
| 1:28.8 | ears but are deaf may not know that they cannot hear. If they have eyes and ears, they could assume |
| 1:34.6 | that they can see and hear as well as they should. I have entered the reading glasses stage of life. |
| 1:41.2 | Fine print that used to be legible now requires magnification, but if I had no memory of |
| 1:46.8 | being able to read such print unassisted, I could assume that the fine print is illegible to everyone. |
| 1:53.5 | I wouldn't know that my eyes are less capable than they used to be. In short, those who don't know |
| 1:59.4 | that they are sightless in death don't know what they |
