WOW, isn’t China the culture that, at one time, HONORED THEIR ADVANCED AGE CITIZENS????

Reminds one of the time Lucifer was kicked out of Heaven.

HE WENT NUTS.

Hey, China, join the world that CELEBRATES LIFE...LIKE THE GOOD OLD USA.

I’ll wait for the blowback from those who disagree.

A humanized mouse is a mouse carrying functioning human genes, cells, tissues, and/or organs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humanized_mouse

Some models use human fetal organs, bone marrow, umbilical cord blood.

They are often used in therapeutic monoclonal antibodies. Here is a partial list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monoclonal_antibody#Examples_of_therapeutic_monoclonal_antibodies

Because of how some of them are developed, I personally would do a lot of due diligence in researching any medication ending in -mab before taking it.

Biological weapons are not wise.
Unless you can build in a “bullet proof” mechanism, we don’t really know what mutations can occur.
Suppose I figured out a “Satan” bug that kills black people.
What is to stop it from mutating and spreading to whites or Han Chinese?
Only machines you make are ones you can control.
Anything else is Fools folly

RE: WTF is a humanized mouse?

A humanized mouse is a mouse that has been genetically modified to carry some aspect of the human system, usually for the purpose of medical research.
