[Paradox]

Now there is a gift to the human race; doubling the lifespan of a parasitic worm.

Fascinating experiment actually, could have huge repercussions throughout the medical field.

It was ironic humor actually.

Extending the lifespan of a worm that has made many a human’s life miserable might allow humans to live longer.

Truly ironic. Of course that extended life span will still be subject to predation by that same parasitic worm.
