Considering that China has a billion more people than the US, it’s great to see them trying to push the boundaries of medicine.

- aBillionDead 8y agoYeah, because that’s how counting people works. Got a billion extra people? Herd ‘em into patient wards and start the experiments! We’ve got a billion extra chances to get it right! Just because you’ve got extra people means they’re expendable right? Does that extend to every context, including military deployments? Just hose off that pesky opposition force with an extra million or two human wave attacks? Anticipate the victory as pyrrhic, and do it anyway? No expectation that even 10% will survive the flood of violence? I say again, is this how you count human lives?
