On November 26th, a pair of the world's first genetically modified baby named Lulu and Nana was born. The genes of the twins have been modified to make them naturally resistant to AIDS after birth. He Jiankui has resisted from a compliment to a million people, but in just over a dozen hours. In addition to ethical controversy, its genetically edited infants also raise questions about their legitimacy. The parties involved have been clarifying the relationship:
Shenzhen and the United States Women and Children Hospital did not participate in this test, the baby was not born in the hospital;
Southern University of Science and Technology also said that the genetic editing infant research was carried out outside the school for Associate Professor He Jiankui. He did not report to the school and the department of biology. The school and the biology department did not know about it. The school also indicated that it believes that it seriously violates academic ethics and academic norms;
Shenzhen Science and Technology Commission said that it was not true, and it has never funded projects such as “CCR5 gene editingâ€, “HIV immune gene CCR5 embryo gene editing safety and effectiveness evaluation†and other projects, and did not fund the Southern University of Science and Technology He Jiankui, Jin Jinzhou and Shenzhen and the United States Women and Pediatrics Hospital science and technology project in this field.
The incident also aroused widespread public opinion. On the evening of the 26th, there were 122 joint statements for scientists. They strongly condemned He Jiankui’s rash attempt to edit human embryonic genes, calling it a crazy human experiment. The CRISPR gene editing technology can be done long ago, just don't do it, don't dare to do it, just because of the uncertainty of off-target, as well as the hereditary genetic material transformation and ethical factors of uncertainty, the future of genetic editing baby Uncertainty, no one can know that human beings themselves evolved in the constant changes of the environment. Each gene must have its role. The re-editing of a gene affects not only a generation.
The National Health and Health Commission told the media that it attaches great importance to this matter and immediately requested the Guangdong Provincial Health and Health Commission to seriously investigate and verify it. It is highly responsible and scientifically sound to the people's health, and is handled according to the law in accordance with the law, and the results are disclosed to the public in a timely manner.
We should now pay more attention to the health of two or children who have been operated on!
