“Nuclear is hard. A private individual could still pull it off, if they had enough resources.” “Really? Everyone I’ve talked to says you’d have to be a nation-state, and then we’d still know something was up.” “I think Bill Gates or Elon Musk could pull it off,” replies Theo. “Disguise it in plain sight as fusion research. The key would be keeping a lid on the people working for you.

Medicine is conservative. Sometimes for the right reasons. Sometimes for the wrong reasons. We’ll let people die from a pandemic because we don’t want to give them a cure that might also kill them. It’s easier to deal with the repercussions of a death by natural causes than a death from an experimental procedure.

Interesting perspective .
