Bias in ethics section

There appears to be a heavy bias in the "ethics" section of the page. It seems overly argumentative, the title of the section itself is quite literally "Ethical arguments involving the pig for xenotransfusion". While that itself does not condemn the section itself, the language used however is highly suspect. "Sus scrofa domesticus’s blood will be used to save lives and to increase blood quantity." This section states this as a matter of fact, however I believe this should be restated to something along the lines of "Proponents of xenotransfusion claim that pig's blood could be used to increase supplies of blood used for transfusions". After that section it is stated "The organism will be kept alive and no serious harm will be involved in XTF. It will be similar to how blood is removed from humans." Once again this is stated as a matter of fact, once again it should be reworded to something along the lines of "Advocates for xenotransfusion argue that no long term damage will be caused by regular blood withdrawals". Quite frankly the whole part of "it will be similar to how blood is removed from humans." is incredibly redundant, apologies for sounding rude, but how else will they remove blood from pigs? plugging tubes in its snout like an electrical socket? "Only 10% of the animal’s blood volume will be used each time, therefore, it is ethically acceptable to raise pigs for periodical blood collection as it does not damage the health of the animal." This makes a conclusion from the data, from my understanding Wikipedia is not in the business of making conclusions, we simply state the facts. "It will also be ethical to use pRBCs on humans since it will not cause a severe harm on human’s health.[7]" This section is redundant, and quite comically it refers to blood transfusions as not causing "severe harm on human’s health", I would find it quite concerning if my doctor referred to life saving medication as not causing "severe harm" to my health. The sentence "At the moment XTF is not a real necessity because a lot of people are willing to donate their blood and there is not a significant shortage on blood." not only lacks a citation, it is not relevant to the section, and makes more opinionated assertions. I myself lack the will and expertise to make these edits. Quite frankly reading this has made me irrationally both confused and agitated to a point where I feel that it may cause bias in my edits. I would be incredibly grateful if someone had the will to find a good way to fix all this. H28260100 (talk) 16:26, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

Major restructuring and grammatical fixes needed

It appears that major grammatical and structural changes are needed for this page. Some words are seemingly misused, others are missing all together. I would document many of these needed changes, however due to the massive restructuring of the page needed, and how obvious many of these needed changes are, I feel that redoing the page from scratch may be the best option. I myself am not confident enough in my skills or abilities to do this however, so I leave it to anyone who feels that they could do a good job. H28260100 (talk) 16:32, 30 April 2021 (UTC)
