Did you hear about the new stem cell breakthrough that stem cells have been morphed into lung tissue? I didn’t think so. Those stem cells were not the right or politically correct stem cells. They are from umbilical cord blood, not from embryos.
Wesley Smith says “don't expect the media or politicians to notice. There is campaign money in them thar embryonic stem cell hills. Big Biotech has spent many tens of millions in propagandizing the country and it's payback time!” Umbilical cord blood stem cells don’t have millions and millions of dollars of investments behind them.
Paraplegic stem cell patient advocate James P. Kelly tells me that there are promising efforts involving adult/umbilical cord blood stem cells that are either not getting funding or are being stopped, while boat loads of money goes to embryonic stem cell research which has shown not human results. I’ll report more on that as I get more info.
Sufferers should not be surprised that big biotech may be working for their interests and against the interests of sufferers and public health. Lots of companies have done that for profit. Why shouldn’t the big bio-tech industry?
