    And as fair as that view is, I wouldn’t do “trial and error involving the likelihood of death” on humans, or for me, most (if not all) living creatures.

    So that’s gonna be a controversial sell, and using “save the dolphins” that leave out crucial info isnt going to be it…

      I agree it’s untenable.

      There would be many peops that agree to take that risk on.

      Even though, it would be a no go right from the start due to funding and as you mentioned harm to others.

      The thought I had is far beyond my pay grade so to speak but would not a few deaths on either side be worth it to save many many more in the future?

        No, it’s not ethical.

        It’s unacceptable to do that to humans in a ‘modern Western’s’ clinical ethics setting.

        I agrue it’s still unethical to do to animals…
