Lee Elder - "...perhaps this one will offer a way out for Jehovah's Witnesses."
I'm sure some of 'em are crossing their fingers.
Even back when I was still in, I'd figured out that if the WTS were mistaken, they couldn't easily abandon the no-blood policy (for several reasons), and were probably hoping that the development and approval of synthetic blood would provide a solution.
Taking that line of thinking a step further, I can't help but wonder if the people responsible for this product have (indirect) WT connections.
