Refusing to give this girl's brother a deadly treatment, now everyone hates me?!
Question: Refusing to give this girl's brother a deadly treatment, now everyone hates me.?
I'm a child prodigy/scientist who's currently attending a very prestigious high school. I'm currently researching new medicine techniques in the school's laboratory, specifically gene therapy. Well there this hot, popular girl at school whom everyone absolutely loves. If she's sad, everyone's sad, if she's happy, everyone's happy. If she hates someone, that person because becomes public enemy #1 and if she likes someone, everyone stares at the person in envy. Of course I couldn't care less of what the conformist society of my school thinks of each other.
So one day, her older brother's genetic disease has caused him to go into respiratory and cardiac arrest. The entire school is crying over it and the word gets out that he will die in two months. Well the disease was too rare to catch so no one even bothers to find a solution and every scientist she tries to contact will refuse to waste their time on such a rare disease. So the girl comes up to me and ask if I can do anything to find a cure seeing as how I am working on gene therapy. I was having a god complex at the time and told her that my time is too precious to research such an insignificant disease for one insignificant person and the next day, the entire school was waiting outside ready to hang me unless I tried to find a cure.
Most of the kids at school either got in here because their parents are big shot money makers or if the kid is a child prodigy. In her case, its the former so her parents hired some scientists for me to boss around and eventually we found a way to alter an incredibly deadly virus to carry a specific gene in order to repair the dysfunctional gene in her brother's DNA. We experimented with some animals, but received no positive results. Many of the animals died because the virus was so deadly, and I would have used a different virus if this one didn't do its job so incredibly well.
So her brother will die in three weeks and request that I use the gene therapy on her brother which I refused because it can kill him. "Its not that I care about the life of other people, let alone their feelings. If that were the case I would immediately apply the gene therapy not caring for whether he lived or died as long as you get out of my face" I told her, "but my reputation as a scientist will be ruined and I will never be able to get a career as a scientist in the future."
She ran off crying and now the entire school wants me dead. One day its a swirly in the boy's restroom, and the next, its getting jumped by the football team. I DO NOT HAVE TO TAKE THIS FROM A GROUP OF INFERIOR SUB-HUMANS SCUM! But I have no choice because being in this school means I can get into any university I want. So should I just give her brother the treatment or should I just take the sub-humans' crap for the next 3 years.?
And no this is not made up!!!!!!!!Health Question & Answer

You should stop being so full of your prodigious self and stop considering those of lesser intelligence to have lesser worth. All of this "sub-human" **** you get to towards the end shows me that you most likely are too self-involved to be very likable, whether you do this girl a favor or not. So go ahead and take the bad reputation.Health Question & Answer
Why would a high school student be treating a disease.? Research takes years and years, and requires lots of specialized equipment, not to mention, tons of money. Methinks you've got a rich imagination, and are writing a story one of your classes.. Good luck with your assignment. Health Question & Answer
A few things:
1) You are making this up.
2) You don't have a medical license.
3) Hypothetically speaking, if you didn't want to get treated like crap, then you should have phrased it better. Like: "I'm sorry, but I don't have time."

--"I'm a child prodigy/scientist who's currently attending a very prestigious high school." You lost me right from the opening line: how can you be a scientist and attend high school.?
--"I was having a god complex at the time and told her that my time is too precious to research such an insignificant disease for one insignificant person and the next day, the entire school was waiting outside ready to hang me unless I tried to find a cure." Bear with me while I rephrase this sentence: "I love me. Who do you love.?" You were having a so-called "God complex".? Get over yourself!
--"In her case, its the former so her parents hired some scientists for me to boss around and eventually we found a way to alter an incredibly deadly virus to carry a specific gene in order to repair the dysfunctional gene in her brother's DNA." No scientist would allow a school student to "boss" them around. Period. You would not be in charge of a "deadly virus", either. If I through around a term like PC3 and PC4 would you even know what I was talking about.?
--I have to wonder if you even go to school...
No 'child prodigy' would write such rubbish. Sorry but I think you're dreaming when you call yourself 'child prodigy'.Health Question & Answer

You should ignore them. Maybe say you're sorry to this girl and that you don't have the time to help her out with this and you pretty much really don't want to. If she takes this well than good for you, if not ignore them, they will give up after awhile because nobody can tease forever. also this girl seems quiet rude and may just be too spoiled for words. And another thing if you're as smart as you say you are then why does anybody have the right to be mean to you. You want a good job with good pay and you must deserve it. Don't let this girl bring you down with all the hard work you have put in to going to the high school you're at and don't let anyone tel you different. Health Question & Answer
I say that putting up with all that trouble of kids bullying you in school for three years is not good. I say that if your heart says its right to give him the medicine, then do it... but if your heart leads you to something else... follow it...
But my opinion on the whole thing if for you to give the medicine a try and see if it will work. If it doesn't, then at least you tried and he is going to die anyway. If he dies... just know that you helped him by making his pain and misery go away. No matter what people say... So I say... go for it! But if your heart tells you otherwise... it's fine because that is what you heart is telling you to do. :)
Hope this helps out even a little. XDHealth Question & Answer

You may be a child prodigy and have a very high IQ but you need to learn some compassion. You could have handled the situation differently with the girl. Telling her that her brother is insignificant and that his life doesn't matter is cruel. If you don't change how you feel about other people you will never have any friends and remain lonely.

you made this up #1 your not a Dr so you cant treat anyone and it just sounds phony to me .Give me the name of your school so I can report them for thinking they are Dr's and students are expected to treat ill people.Health Question & Answer
You sound like a complete douche bag, and you are not any better then the people at that school, but here is my advice
If u are sure the treatment will kill her brother, then dont do it.
Why dont you announce the danger and everything that could happen in some sort of event or where everyone will hear you. Try not to be so blunt and mean to people, that just worsens things.
Whatever you do do NOT take all that crap for 3 years, it can make you do something that would hurt someone. Instead try explaining the danger and how its not your fault, you can prove it.Health Question & Answer

Oh boy. What an imagination. Well seeing as it is not "made up" <rolling eyes> then your best bet is you need to contact a local medical school and explain what is going on. Because you, in your high school lab, have made more advances in gene therapy than anyone else in the world. You could save millions and make billions. Oh and definitely do the treatment, it will launch your career as the most famous medical researcher EVER. Health Question & Answer
The first thing to do is to get rid of your better than thou attitude.
It is great that you are so extremely gifted.
The gift is obviously meant to help the human race.
The attitude you posses is despicable, you are not better than anyone, you may be smarter or better at certain things.
If you do not care about other people then you are the selfish little sub-human.
Scientist work for the betterment of the human race, if you do not care about other humans then get out of science.
The therapy could be used if all the proper legal channels were followed, and all legal documents and waivers were signed, it would be the choice of the family to determine if they wanted to take the risk.
It is your responsibility to ensure that all legal channels are properly followed so that no action against you cannot be taken in the case of a failure.
Remember failure is part of science. If something you do fails your future is not ruined, if you do something stupid you could be ruined.
To make the point again, you will make a terrible scientist and an even worse leader no matter what you discover if your attitude does not change.
With great power comes great responsibility.
