    For those of you wondering, the answer wound up being “yes it is”. This is why click bait headlines are bad.

      In this instance, I think maybe the fact that they’re asking, at all, is more telling/alarming/relevant than whatever the answer purportedly is.

    Companies aren’t motivated to find actual cures diseases that are highly profitable like type 1 diabetes. If they do, I expect it will be like the $3.5 million treatment for hemophilia.

    Capitalism’s success already accounts for the poor to die as a feature not a bug

      Seems the same with COVID and flu, just get your annual shots even though you can get reinfected by variants
