What if I want to identify as a trans-species mouse?

Don’t you worry about cancer in mice? Even if it worked in humans it will either (1) be illegal in the United States or (2) be prohibitively expensive or (3) moderately expensive until bought up by a large pharmaceutical firm who will jack the price up 10 times AND (4) will be cheaper elsewhere in the world by a factor of four at least.

QUESTION:

Where do they find all these mice that have cancer??

Give them Pall Malls and light em up?

Pro-create a strain of mice genitally deposed to cancer?

Raise them downwind to Three Mile Island?

The reason I ask is not all cancers are “created equally” Hence why do scientists believe the cancer induced lab mice the medicine they successfully treated will be effective with”wild”(not lab controlled)cancer that actually are the result of real conditions people are afflicted with.

Smart question or really, really dumb?

Remember this article. Archive it. This, like other cancer breakthroughs, will just simply disappear. Too much money in cancer management, and no money on cancer elimination.

They don’t. That is why these human trials are needed.

This news is good news -— if you are a mouse. That’s all.

Well, if you want to be identified as a “trans-species mouse” or any other “trans”, you have several precedents:

You have “Mickey and Minnie”
“Ed or Edwina”
“Selma and Louise”
“In or Out”
“Dame Edna”
“RuPaul or Paul””
Rosie O’Donnell
Michael or Michelle Moore
Barack or Michelle Obama
“Bathhouse or White House”
“Nancy (Pelosi) or Linguini”
“Trans-Siberian Railroad” (aka the Potma Special - Soviet slave labor camps all the way to Lake Baikal
“Trans-Siberian Orchesta”

And the list goes on!

Yep. 3 reasons I voted for Trump:

1. Clean out the swamp - specifically lock up Hillary first. First and foremost above EVERYTHING else in this country, that bitch being brought to justice should be THE #1 priority as SHE is ground zero for all this constant BS Trump and this country is getting day after day, SHE is THE source and until that is taken care of it's going to be rough going to get things done. There is NO deep state, there is only Hillary and those who do what she tells them.

2. End the criminal foreign invasion and build the wall.

3. End the nightmare of healthcare in this country. It's utterly insane what is going on. I'm self employed and I no longer have healthcare because I can't afford it. And if that wasn't bad enough, when I did my tax returns it said I must pay a $700 fine for not being able to afford it. I went from getting money back to owing money.

Don’t forget the biggest one—population control.

After the government gets through dicking around with it the public might have access in about 10 years.

I would assume that if you axed them they would be hurting. At least until they died from being axed.

“(1) be illegal in the United States”

I understand your sentiment, But it suggests that it is a combination of two existing drugs...

The same scenario applies to Alzheimer's.

There've been at least a dozen "breakthroughs" in the past twenty years.

Too much money in cancer management, and no money on cancer elimination.

Can you find ANYTHING the American Cancer Society has cured or come close to curing? Any drug trials? Any medicines at all for the billions they have taken in? I see plenty from small to large biotechs firms but I don't see any from the ACA. Why is that?

I used to work for a company that provided specialty lab mice. A lab mouse can cost upwards of $100,000.

Before gene editing they used to actually expose the mice to certain things, or train them for things. Now with DNA mapping complete and gene editing for animals common place, the cures are coming fast and furious. For $50 you can get a mouse that used to cost $25,000.
