As long as the patient signs a waiver relieving the labs, hopistals and workers of all responsibility and no ability to sue, let her have it. If you're willing to take something you have no idea how it may affect you then so be it. I'm sure she's on deaths door, can't see how much harm it could do.

It isn't a liability issue. It fricks up their clinical trials. If some unforeseen factor of her disease causes a side effect, it could screw everything up.

I feel for them, but 1 life isn't worth that risk.
