39. For your sarcasm to work as implicit criticism, you would have to know how Chinese treat diabetes

You are assuming that the Chinese in fact treat diabetes the same way and with the same drugs as the disease is treated in the west, and that their control of the disease is no more efficacious as ours.

Can you back that statement up? Do you have any data to support that?

No?

Hmmmm...

Sounds like someone is making scientific claims based on gut feelings again rather than on the basis of data.
