Sure, he gave permission for them to publish the paper about him. But, did he give them permission to address him solely as "48 year old obese man?"

The most important part is missing: Did he got to name the bacteria?

If that happened to me, and I got rid of it, I'd ask if the infection could be named after me.

I want it to be remembered that I won.

Nah. They would name it Spspspspspiosis.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That sounds more like the name of the treatment than of the bacteria itself.
