Does it? There is a billion people on this planet without adequate medical system - whose health is not considered worth investing into. If they get auto-diagnosed by app (zero-cost), they could volunteer for a free chemical trial (delivery of package), a application of said package (local nurse - not free) and a series of follow up scans + analysis.

The office behemoths involved are optional. Whats missing is tools to scan the body locally for cheap. The rest can be automated or distributed to people with an interest in success (high-level-analysis by the cure developers).

Here are the volunteers: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S266700542...

What a profoundly ineffective and broken system we have that this could be uttered as anything other than satire.

PS: Yes, its a deeply broken system- and its also on the point where the well-off blue blooded caste starts to blame the lower-classes for the misery inflicted upon them again- aka, if you are of low blood, you are obviously lazy because you spend so much time in bed being sick. Ideology can be a very effective tool to deactivate compassion.

So the perfect nothing is allowed to block the imperfect something, because we wait for humans to transcend to angelic beeings?

I’m inclined to believe that the status quo is actually better than mass human experimentation on the poor.

Yeah, not doing human testing on poor folks without a choice is really "angelic" and "perfect". Very high bar to set, how could we possibly achieve such high standards of morality?

They have a choice. To use the medicine or not. The choice is gone in the other case- where you can die of cancer for "ethical" comission reasons.

That’s essentially a non-choice. Also data of self-administration is probably worthless.

Lovely: so just give tons of people an experimental drug and collect garbage data by doing so!

I'm not sure people fully understand the scientific method.

All data is not reliable data.
