“The Immortal Legacy of Henrietta Lacks 🌟” 1. “In 1951, Henrietta Lacks, a mother of five, visited Johns Hopkins Hospital for cervical cancer treatment.” 2. “Without her consent, doctors took a sample of her tumor, and what they found changed medicine forever.” 3. “Her cells, later called HeLa cells, could survive and multiply indefinitely in labs—a first in medical history.” 4. “HeLa cells helped develop the polio vaccine, cancer treatments, and even research for COVID-19.” 5. “But Henrietta never knew, and her family wasn’t told for decades.” 6. “Today, Henrietta Lacks is honored as a symbol of scientific progress and the fight for ethical justice.” 7. “Her cells saved millions of lives. Her story is immortal.” “Thank you, Henrietta Lacks. 🌺
