Illness Section?

[edit]

Hey y'all, I'm skimming this article because I heard about it through friends. Is the entire Illness section just gone? I don't know anything about her outside of this article, so can someone who does please add at least something small in that section? Thanks much! Nathan Walsh (talk) 20:32, 9 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Common sense departed!

[edit]

"We could live forever like Henrietta Lacks cells"

... misses the point that the prevalence of these cells in your body will eventually kill you (or is it deliberate irony ... can't tell these days)? 2001:8003:70F5:2400:E11A:8A72:970:BF19 (talk) 00:47, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
