Week 11- Gene Therapy

Seems there is a lot to say and a lot of opinions..If someone or myself especially had a life-threatening illness and benefits outweighed the risks as in some examples mentioned, I think it would be great. There are just so many diseases we don't know enough about to be injecting large amounts of DNA into the human body. I am all for doing the research and feel it would be better if your body could be injected with the gene instead of taking a medication with a million side effects:)

  1. I, too, think it's great that gene therapy is used to fight disease and life-threatening illnesses. Just as long as it's not used for cloning robot-like people - that would be freaky.
