Reference: Suspend stem cell therapies, Postbag, June 29, 2008

A letter from the USA (Bangkok Post, June 29, 2008) describes the the sad pain, suffering, and outrage of an American patient who had sought out unregulated stem cell therapy in Thailand. Yet, Americans who voluntarily leave their regulated land to seek alternative treatment in Mexico and elsewhere surely assume a degree of regulation risk every time they do so; and that risk leaves little room for laying blame after the fact on the unregulated market that they themselves had sought out.
