A Meeting of Medicine and Research

[Doc Holliday]

When Bucksworth finished, Doc's comm started to buzz. He rolled his eyes in disgust as he excused himself figuring it to be an emergency.
"I told you not to call me while I am here," he said rather annoyed. He listened and grew annoyed as he did. He simply answered, "So be it. Now do not bother me again."
He simply turned off his comm to be sure it wouldn't happen again but he was visibly annoyed as he cursed in Latin. The only thing his hosts would pick up was that he was cursing their government.

He then turned his attention to his hosts. "My apologies for the disruption. Most have little knowledge of Med Force Enterprises and we keep it that way. The work we do, the training we provide, the research we perform medically and scientifically. For people to know even some of it, we would be considered monsters like doctors of old were when they would hide in wooded cabins as they had jars of human parts to study for treatments. People also think that as we are not for profit that everyone who works for me is a volunteer. Well, they are paid through the many donations we receive and through our trade ships. We just do not charge our patients."

He was noticeably annoyed but doing well to contain it. "Morale is not a problem for my people. They love their work first and foremost. As to who they work with matters not. I will keep my people paid you can yours. If we can work side by side with the likes of the 46th fleet, the Crayterians and even people you see as enemies, I have no doubt that working with your people will not be a problem."

He then gave Felcher a smart smile. "You are right about elixers which is why we invested in them. They make for a great starting base. Add some medicines, manufactured or grown, they actually make for a very good remedy."
He leaned up a bit toward Felcher. "I know Cryer is more into traditional medicines but we use more as in what nature provides. Penicillin was a mold and therefore natural. We have had a lot of success with our work."

He sat back. "I do agree. Mobile lab modules are quite easily deployed. We keep a few on our hospital ships for ground deployments for when our ships cannot land. I am thinking really that the only supplies your ships would need to bring are those from your bases."
