Neurosurgeons at UC Davis censured after trying out probiotic treatments on brain cancer patients

Documents show the surgeons got the consent of three terminally ill patients with malignant brain tumors to introduce bacteria into their
open head wounds, under the theory that postoperative infections might
prolong their lives. Two of the patients developed sepsis and died,
the university later determined.

How dare a doctor and patient agree to use a technique that has not been hallowed and sanctified? Next thing you know they’ll want to start treating patients as if they were actual human beings. Patients have no right to information or consent, it just makes the poor childish louts unhappy.

I’m kidding! Please don’t withhold my prescriptions! I was just kidding!
