Not possible - they’re so backwards that they cannot even figure out how to use a fork.

(but they’re hypersonics will easily sink our carriers)

Don’t believe this fatuous Chinese propaganda.

Islets of Langerhans have a pretty complex structure, so I don’t think the Chinese created those from stem cells. I can see them creating and injecting insulin producing cells into the pancreas, with some of them sticking.

Even if only the latter, it’s a good start.

BFD, slopes.

Type 2 is easily curable by resolving the potassium, chromium, and vanadium deficiencies.

This is a bogus article. Type 2 diabetes is not caused by failure of the islet cells but by a loss of sensitivity to insulin in the body. Only Type 1 is due to the loss of pancreatic islet cells.

Even if they did use stem cells, we know where those came from.

About as reliable as staying fat, dumb, and unhealthy (aka lockeddown and [anti]social distanced) to “stop the spread” of their CoupFlu.

However, they ban the export due to Washington’s sanction regime.... They will speak with Trump if allowed to assume the presidency about future exports;)

“Even if they did use stem cells, we know where those came from.”

Adult stem cells are being used with great success.

Yes, they probably got them from adults whose organs were “donated”.

A person in China is only as valued to the extent the state can make use of him.

Probably solved in the West decades ago, but that wouldn’t generate the necessary financials for Pharma and the Cult of Medicine.

Maybe - one of the theories of T2 is that the insulin resistance burns out the insulin producing cells because they have to produce so much that they burn out. Replacing those may “solve” the problem.

mmm.. unlimited twinkies.

Actually, I believe they make them from your own fat.

I know our bodies has adult stem cells in the bone marrow and all that.

However, the Chinese are not going to waste a good prisoner. If they can stretch for another dollar, they will.

You, very well, could be correct.
More likely than not.

A sample size of 1 is not conclusive.
