Knowing how the FDA works here, Europe and Canada will have this supposed "miracle drug" in 2-3 years if research shows it works on Humans. Then in about 15 years, the FDA will approve it

Hahah. Of course we wouldn't turn into that. We'd turn into something much worse. They are trying to make a SYNTHETIC crocodile blood. Who knows what'd be in that. All people with HIV could turn out to be dinosaurs.

...that would be cool. But if you know anyone with HIV, forget I said that.
