Red tape in the medical trials domain is forged from blood.
Human experimentation is limited and carefully managed for very good reasons. Killing people to extend other people's lives is not a good tradeoff.
- strken 5y agoVoluntary human experimentation is less clear-cut. Having watched the decline of members of my family through their 80s and 90s, some of whom have clearly wanted to die in the last few years, I'd seriously consider taking a risky treatment for senescence at that age. Trading the worst years of your life for medical data and a tiny bit of hope could be a good deal.
- zemvpferreira 5y agoWouldn't say otherwise, I don't necessarily agree it's a good idea.
