“and to the point where basically if the free fatty acids rise to the level of completely blocking the effects of insulin then you get diabetic ketocinosis and these people get rushed to the hospital they're already in type type uh type B I think it's like type B lactic acidosis as well which has a very high mortality rate which I I'm sure you've seen in the hospital as well so these people basically like have to get a Russian Hospital get injected immediately with a very high dose of insulin and pray to God because it's still not guaranteed that they'll survive”
