Well thank goodness these kind souls made it so affordable. And im sure it will come down in price after its really proven to be effective right?
I'm sure the RnD for this was expensive af but ffs man, even with insurance thats probably going to be out of reach for so many people.
Charging people for their own cells, too!
Pretty close to Michael Crichton's book "Next". Without the persons consent, they steal the cell line of someone who's cells naturally fight off cancer, create a cancer fighting drug, and then patent it, so the company legally owns that persons cells, and has a legal right to them with or without the person's consent.
Henrietta Lacks has entered the chat . . .
Huh, TIL.
