This’s A Great Reason Why We Need To Properly Understand Gene Editing, Using CRISPR, Before Implementing It. Recall Those Twins That Were CCR50 Gene Edited To Reduce Their Chance Of Being HIV Infected? Well, There Is A 21% Increased Risk Of Them Dying Early. And Scientists Are Uncertain As To How This Relates To Mortality.
CRISPR gene-edited babies may be at increased risk of early death, study finds – CNNA double mutation of the CCR5 gene, which a Chinese scientist intentionally edited into human embryos last year, is also associated with a 21% increased risk of dying early, a new study showed.
