NATURE | The Venom Cure | Lifesaver | PBS

Researchers believe that a spray containing the clotting agent from brown snake venom could eventually be used by emergency response teams to save the lives of trauma victims. "The Venom Cure" illustrates how some of the animals we fear most may one day soon be helping us solve or alleviate a wide range of life-threatening medical problems.

"The Venom Cure" airs on PBS Sunday, June 6, 2010 at 8pm (check local listings) and is part of the 28th season of the Peabody and Emmy award-winning series produced by Thirteen in association with WNET.ORG for PBS. Major support provided by Canon U.S.A. Inc. For more information, visit: http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/episodes/the-venom-cure/introduction/2063/?utm...

All the witches and satanists do that. Don't worry be happy. Next weeks episode toxic waste to treat sunburn. Humans what will they think of next and then test on thousands of helpless animals. Freaks.
