"I always wanted a genetically altered pig heart from Revivicor, what could go wrong?"

Some folks might have some reservations based on religious beliefs, especially when surprised after an operation.

Will I need to supress the urge to wallow and frolic in every mudpit I drive by during rainy season?

Honestly, I always wanted to get a Peking homuculus for my kids too.

Genetically engineered pig hearts transplanted into dead people

Sounds like the beginning of a horror movie.

Good idea for a superhero. Get all genetic modified body parts from animals. The eyes of an eagle, the ears of a bloodhound, the claws of a bear, the fangs of a tiger, and the schlong of a horse.

NYC seems a super expensive place to do medical experiments, except for being the world epicenter for billionaires. Whole body transplants from the neck down will be popular someday, although with a billion dollar price tag.

“Sounds like the beginning of a horror movie.”

Or the end of a romantic one.

“Revivicor”. Sounds like something out of an Arnold Schwarzenegger movie.

I was curious if the article was going to say the hearts revived the dead recipients.

No comment on this story, but I bet there’s some extreme experimentation going on in CHI-nuh. I’d hate to be an animal or slave over there.

Those hearts are great but they have a side effect in that you cannot control the urge to roll around in the mud.

When this becomes normal and accepted, I’ll be called xenotransplantationphobic.
