] "Our scientists are now working on the next generation of ] clone babies which will include for the first time as ] well clones of people carrying the HIV virus.

I don't think these people know anything about biological science. For example, how do you clone a person with HIV without passing on the disease? Sounds like these people haven't gotten the clue that HIV is a retrograde virus that integrates into its host genome. Therefore, if you clone someone with HIV, and you pick a cell with the virus, then actually, you are creating a baby that most certainly will have HIV. Sheesh. |
