Hello, my name is Nicola and I'm from England. And my question is, would you volunteer for medical experiments?
It's a very good question, indeed. I'm not sure that I would, actually. I don't think that I would volunteer. However, having said that, if I was in a situation where I was quite ill and the treatment that I'd been given hadn't worked, and I had a last resort to volunteer for this new experiment, this new drug, should I say, to volunteer in the experiment, as a last resort, I probably would try . So I probably would try that
But volunteering just for the sake of volunteering, I can honestly say that I wouldn't do that. I don't really like modern medicine anyway. So for me it would be going against my own personal beliefs. So you tell me, would you volunteer for a medical experiment?
