How much d'you want to bet that Putin was waxing lyrical to him about Hannibal (the Carthaginian General and great military tactician), and the ignorant fuckwit assumed he meant Lecter?

I can't find the original study, but according to this NPR article they were all scheduled for surgical abortions.
The abortion pill is a two pill process - the study was to find out if progesterone injections could reverse the effects of taking the first pill only.
Now I'm just imagining Pliny the Elder with access to TikTok:
Pliny the Elder, The Natural History - BOOK XXVIII. REMEDIES DERIVED FROM LIVING CREATURES:
The human bite is also looked upon as one of the most dangerous of all. The proper remedy for it is human ear-wax: a thing that we must not be surprised at, seeing that, if applied immediately, it is a cure for the stings of scorpions even, and serpents.
If a woman takes the first tooth that; a child has shed, provided it has not touched the ground, and has it set in a bracelet, and wears it constantly upon her arm, it will preserve her from all pains in the uterus and adjacent parts.
For the cure of cataract, it is reckoned a good plan to apply a wolf's excrements

OP is clearly a troll:
In fact, trolls traditionally count like this: one, two, three . . . many, and people assume this means they can have no grasp of higher numbers.
They don't realize that many can be a number. As in: one, two,three, many, many-one, many-two, many-three, many many, many-many-one, many-many-two, many-many-three, many many many, many-many-many-one, many-many-many-two, many-many-many-three, LOTS.

It depends - are you Inigo Montoya?
I imagine their conversations go something like this:
"...unfortunately, they can no longer move anything else."
It's not my fault! The bigger boys tricked me!
I got the Oasis/roll with it bit (probably because I'm old), but I had to look up what oasis soup was.
OASIS (Oldways Africana Soup In Stories) is a celebratory anthology of culturally-informed soup recipes that seeks to foster and expand conversation about nutritional knowledge and Black women’s wellness.

Edit: Though the book may have been based on the original joke, come to think of it...
Not sure I'd categorise us as a civilised country at the moment, but in the UK it's a full week before your employer can ask for a note: https://www.gov.uk/taking-sick-leave
"The devil told you that! the devil told you that!" cried the little man, and in his anger he stamped with his right foot so hard that it went into the ground above his knee; then he seized his left foot with both his hands in such a fury that he split in two, and there was an end of him.
