The Gene Editing Scandal that Shook the World
In 2018, a gene editing scandal shook the world. Two babies have been genetically engineered in secret by one one man. Some hail this man as a hero who could save thousands, other warn that he could change the genetic code of humanity forever. This is the story of the first genetically edited children. This is the gene editing scandal that shook the world.

He Jiankui was born in 1984 in a small village in Xinhua County, Hunan, China. Throughout his childhood and early adultood, he worked hard and slowly became interested in gene editing. A few years earlier, the rise of CRISPR Cas9 technology has revolutionized our possibilities in gene editing. By using the Cas9 protein and a guide RNA that is specific to a target gene, we can make precise cuts in our DNA. He aimed to use CRISPR Cas9 gene editing to mutate the CCR5 gene in embryos. In this way, he speculated, they might become resistant against HIV. So He enrolled couples with HIV positive men to genetically engineer fertilized eggs and make them "HIV resistant". In November 2018, the first genetically edited children (Lulu and Nana) were born. When He announced their birth, the scientific communitx and the world were shocked. Gene therapy and gene editing treatments require many safety mechanisms to avoid severe side-effects. Many were shocked since no one really knew what safety precautions He took. When it came to light that He allegedly falsified ethical approval forms, he and some of his colleagues were sentenced to 1.5-3 years in prison. In 2024, He announced that he re-opened his laboratory to study rare genetic diseases.

    It's been four years since I ditched social media (FB and Insta) the only two I was using. I do like YT but I watch videos that help me fix things around the home including my truck. I recently downgraded to a TCL Flip phone with unlimited calling across Canada. I've noticed everyone have their smartphone in their face all day long it just sucks to be them.

    Great work keeping this story up to date in the public space! That there is no major documentary (TMK) on the topic since 2018 is outrageous. Science is funded almost exclusively by tax-money and charities. That media do not report on this every week is sad. If you need ideas on further topics for future videos, dont hesitate to send me a PM. One obvious is "kit-ificcation" and black boxes in medical science, we do no longer know what we are doing as these reactions are hidden by IP.

    The thought occurs that this could be turned into a terrible bioweapon. Find a highly infectious prion, express and manufacture in culture, heat treat to chemically form the beta sheets, make the protein even more bioaccumulating with strategic flourination. If it ever happens let's hope kuru is chosen, not CJD. At least you'll get some laughs out of it.

    I always am tired all the time. I fall asleep at school throughout the day, no matter how much sleep I get. This affected my grade in math since we had notes almost every. But, a few years before I made myself get as little sleep as possible because I believed sleeping was a waste of time. Since I didn’t enjoy school and didn’t talk to anyone, I thought in return I should use all of the time I had outside of school watching a show, playing a game etc. But around the end of that year, I realized that if I hated school so much, I should make it end faster. So I slept at all moments I could, in class, home, (where I could atleast.) My sleeping is still weird now but I don’t have that mentality anymore.

    I contracted Lyme in 2015 and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I couldn't walk, couldn't even lift my arm and I couldn't sleep because of the severe pain 24 hours a day. Lyme is horrendous. After a few weeks in hospital the doctor's told me that they couldn't do anything to help me and that my body would have to heal itself. After 3 months in in hell I was on the verge of taking my own life just to end the pain. What saved me was reading a book by Professor Buhner's called 'Healing Lyme' and followed his protocol to the letter. When I told the doctor's what I was going to do that they laughed at me. But what else was I supposed to do? It was a very slow process because first you have to reboot your immune system and second you have to fight the bacteria of which actually hides from your immune system - known as 'pathogenic bacteria'. What is different about the Lyme bacteria to other bacteria is that it eats the magnesium in your body whereas most bacteria eat iron. Without magnesium your muscles can't work. Little by little I began to improve but I won't lie, it was the fight of my life. All in all it took about one year for all the symptoms and the pain to stop. Only then could I begin to build up my strength again. Today, 2024, I play golf and I am a 8 handicap. If I ever contracted Lyme againI don't think I could go through it again and would probably just end my life. That's how vicious it is. For anyone reading this who has Lyme - don't give up - your body can kill it. It takes a special diet, special herbs and sheer will power. It will be the fight of your life but if you want your life back that is what you must do.
