For those who didn't read the article, so far it's only being tested in mice with promising results.
I'm 33 so I hope that if this ever works for humans I am still in a suitable age range for it.
I always assume something of that nature when I see headlines like this
Haven’t we cured Alzheimer’s in mice like a dozen times or something?
Scientists are evil and just enjoy giving mice Alzheimer's.
The problem is that these mice don't have Alzheimer's. They're bred to develop the symptoms: "plaques and neurofibrillary tangles, which comprise abnormally aggregated β-amyloid peptide (Aβ) and hyperphosphorylated tau protein"

But that may not be what causes Alzheimer's. That might just be an effect, and treating the effect might not fix anything.
We’ve probably cured every disease in mice ten times over. But one thing about science and medicine: an animal =/= a human.
I didn't read the article so thank you.
we need a tldr bot.
It's a start but it's miles away
Well, 5% is better than 0%. So theres that.
