"A study performed by physicist William Shockley for the staff of Secretary of War Henry Stimson estimated that the invasion of Japan would cost 1.7-4 million American casualties, including 400,000-800,000 fatalities, and five to ten million Japanese deaths. These fatality estimates were of course, in addition to those who had already perished during four long years of war; American deaths were already about 292,000."

Edit: Important to note, 1.7-5 million American casualties, didn't mention anything about other allies that would have been involved.

There's a difference between giving animals medication to ensure they're healthy and purposefully abusing them.
