For instance (if you already know this - forgive me) about 2 years ago during retroviral gene therapy trials a young man suddenly died. I personally think that stopping all such trials was a mistake, but care needs to be taken. Don't you think?

Free people can make their own decisions about their own health. But of course we are not free.

We wouldn't want dying people to have a chance to live if they might die from something else would we? Makes perfect sense.

Come on Thom, you know I support a person's right to take or put whatever they want into their bodies. However, a physician cannot, in good faith, be giving people substances without knowing how they will act. I can show you that Draino kills cancer cells in culture, but at the same wouldn't recommend an intavenous drip of Draino.
