What You Should Know Before Qualifying For Rigvir Virus in Latvia If You Live In The UK

  1. Painlessness: it is a standard intramuscular injections.
  2. The selectiveness of action: as already mentioned, only cancer cells are Rigvir® targets. Rigvir® cannot reproduce itself in a human body outside the cancer cell.
  3. The flexibility of use: even if you’ve already been treated with surgery and/or radiation, you can still try Rigvir® injections or combine the injections with other standard cancer treatment including surgery and chemotherapy.
  4. No side effects: radio and surgery also treat melanoma skin cancer, but a lot of patients then face hair loss and pain after radiation, while Rigvir® doesn’t cause them. Because Rigvir® leaves healthy cells untouched, it has shown little or no side effects. Specifically, the body temperature may rise up to 99.5 °F/37.5 °C and stay such for up to three days.

Rigvir can be delivered to your doorstep no matter where you live

Rigvir affects malignant cells only

In general, Rigvir® seeks and infects malignant cells inside your body. It then quickly replicates inside the cells and stays laser-focused on their destruction. Because cancer cells usually camouflage themselves as healthy ones, Rigvir® unveils their mask and mobilizes your entire immune system to fight the disease.

Sometimes it is hard to imagine this process, you can watch this short video-explainer:

Success Rates Of Rigvir® Therapy In Numbers

Rigvir® isn’t a magic pill. Not even close to it.

And if we stick to dry facts, officially the drug improves the survival rates in melanoma patients only. However, real-life experience shows there’s much more to it than just treating melanoma. Here’s what you should know about the success rates of Rigvir® since 1960’s until today.

According to Acta Medica Lituanica, a medical journal (year 2002):

  • The three-year survival rate for patients with melanoma treated with surgery alone was 46-58%. Melanoma patients who received Rigvir® therapy showed a three-year survival rate of 57-84% and a five-year survival rate of 44-66%.
  • The three- and five-year survival rates for patients with ocular melanoma were 90% and 70%, respectively
  • The five-year survival rate for patients with stage III stomach cancer after surgery alone was 24-33%. Patients with the same diagnosis who completed Rigvir® treatment showed 47-60% survival rate.
  • The five-year survival rate for patients with stage II-IV rectal cancer after surgery alone was 41-68%. Patients with the same diagnosis who completed Rigvir® treatment showed 71-78%.

According to Melanoma Research, a peer-reviewed medical journal (October 2015):

According to APMIS (Acta Pathologica, Microbiologica et Immunologica Scandinavica), a medical journal (July 2016):

Our clinic has already helped 1218 patients to win over cancer

As Rigvir is quite new means of cancer treatment (it was registered in approved in 2004), not so many clinics throughout the world offer it.

You may find ones outside Latvia (European Union). Wherever you are, time is not your friend now and it is not a good option to get treatment where doctors are just gaining experience in using Rigvir.

The best option to win over cancer is to visit the destination that is a proven world leader in Rigvir® treatment and has already helped more than 1218 patients.

In 2011 Rigvir was added to the list of state reimbursed drugs approved by the National Health Service of Latvia. This allows all Latvian patients diagnosed with malignant melanoma to use Rigvir at no cost. In 2015 and 2016 the drug was approved by the national registration authorities in Georgia and Armenia accordingly.

In 2016, Rigvir producing company received funding from the European Commission program “Horizon 2020” taking one more step forward to be registered in Europe.

To date, Latvia remains the world’s teaching hub offering in-depth Rigvir training courses, certification, and accreditation of cancer clinics in the field.
