    Adult Stem Cells Now the 'Gold Standard'


    Adult Stem Cells Now the 'Gold Standard'

    During the Great Embryonic Stem Cell Debate, circa 2001-2008, I watched "the scientists" blatantly lie about the supposedly low potential for adult stem cells and the CURES! CURES! CURES that were just around the corner from embryonic stem cells. You remember: Children would soon be out of their wheelchairs and Uncle Ernie's Parkinson's would soon be a disease of the past.

    The pro-ESCR campaign was filled with so much disinformation and hype willingly swallowed by an in-the-tank media — all in a corrupt attempt to overturn the minor federal funding restrictions over ESCR imposed by the president, and to hurt President Bush politically.

    After the Bush presidency, the issue became quiescent. And now, it turns out that the clinical advances that have been made are not from embryonic stem cells....



    ...If this progress had been derived from embryonic stem cells, the headlines would have been deafening
    . The cheering from the media would include anchors dancing with pom-poms!

    But the media isn't much interested in reporting adult stem-cell successes prominently because doing so doesn't promote favored ideological agendas. That's not good journalism.

    Prentice concludes:

    The superiority of adult stem cells in the clinic and the mounting evidence supporting their effectiveness in regeneration and repair make adult stem cells the gold standard of stem cells for patients.

    That's excellent news for everyone, and may it continue.

    But as we benefit from these ethical treatments, the next time ideologically driven scientists, bioethicists, and their media water carriers seek to drive public opinion on scientific issues in a partisan direction by deploying the propaganda tools of hype, exaggeration, and castigation of those who espouse heterodox views, remember how the Great Stem Cell Debate turned out.....
