      No they can’t because they’re not medical researchers.

        Would using wealth to fund medical workers be changing the course?

          No. Maybe paving the course. But they can’t do anything except make it easier for others to choose their preferred course.

          No, it’d be funding medical researchers who change the course.

            Would using their wealth to goto school study and become medical researchers change the course?
