China’s He Jiankui, who used Crispr to edit genome, says he is working on genetic diseases and suggests human embryo gene editing will one day be accepted
He said the three genome-edited children were “perfectly healthy and have no problems with their growth”, according to the newspaper, adding that the twins, now aged 5, were attending kindergarten.
This motherfucker is playing William Tell with baby genes and claiming it’s safe because he didn’t put an arrow into somebody’s forehead. He won’t even know if he hit the apple unless he exposes the children to HIV.
Yeah but the babies also wouldn’t have been born without him, had an HIV positive parent and he did a ton for crispr research. He was only disgraced ‘disappeared’ and jailed because PR was bad. He really didn’t do anything too awful (I think he was too manipulative of the parents) but most of the media you see paints him like doctor fucking Mengele.
