Doesn't matter at the moment, they're still in the test phase seeing how it interacts with the human body, we're not even up to actual transfusions yet. They have to get over that hurdle before we're talking wide scale use so how much they can produce efficiently isn't the #1 priority right now.

If it causes anaphylactic reactions, doesn't clot or has other negative side effects it's a dead end, go back to the drawing board.

honestly while there’s some art to looking at the EKG it’s not the most complicated bit of cardiology. this is one of those things that can be more automated than it traditionally is. It takes longer to wire you up than it does to take the reading and the patterns have never struck me as so complex as to be beyond machine learning.

while it’s not a replacement for a specialist it’s good enough to say “something is seriously wrong go to the ER right now!”

I wish my cousin had done that, his death was a tragedy. One of the more decent human beings I’ve known.
