As much as I'd love for people like this to be punishable by the law, it doesn't quite make sense to do it. Since the victim wasn't forced to take their advice. And if you look hard enough, there're plenty of people out there who likes to give advice to people when they're sick. Especially to cancer victims. Unfortunately too many people don't understand enough about medical sciences or research to properly make a decision, and they believe in pseudoscience. And what's worse is they tend to hide it form their doctors because they know their doctors don't approve, which of course leads to more problems.
@Drich, read up on evolution of this strain of virus used to curb rabbit's population growth in australia. I don't remember its name. Look it up though, quite a well-known textbook example of viruses going from deadly to less deadly, now it doesn't kill any rabbits. It is the norm. Becoming less deadly increases their fitness.
