So I think probably one of the most important, let's say, changes to our medical system that could be initiated is
would be, frankly, the use of things like MRI, not CT scans, because CT scans are known to cause cancer.
Like, when did we figure that out?
I mean, there was like a big study just published recently that said, here's what happens to people once CT scans were implemented, and you see this sudden spike in the... I mean...
Again, it's this cost-benefit ratio.
If you didn't have it, certain people wouldn't know that they have a giant tumor in there.
I mean, so for instance, when I had kidney cancer, I was actually at a restaurant with friends doing a business deal actually.
And I went to the bathroom and it was blood.
And I said, okay, we got to go to the emergency room like now.
And then they did a CT scan and they see this, the brachial tree around my kidney was just a big diffuse mess and they came in and said, you've got cancer.
It's nice to have two of them.
But, you know, this early detection is important.
I mean, I was lucky that it hadn't metastasized yet.
