I received the new gene-editing drug for sickle cell disease. It changed my life.

All you negroes scared of tech and change, thinking vaccines are the devil, gonna die out. Leaving the world for us ready to progress.

As I've said many times: the world will change with or without you. There's no stopping it. It is the next step in evolution and inevitable.

I have sickle cell but have never had any complications or issues from it

 

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

Of all the diseases to test this tech out on they chose sickle cell and beta thalassemia, I wonder why.

Glad the treatment is working for bro though.

don't start conspiracies. what makes you guys happy? inherent fear mongering is not awareness...

you can see just in the related or similar threads that's not true. it's being tested broadly for many things.

the fear comes from lack of understanding and it's a broader problem that is coupled with anti intellectualism becoming more common

for the record we don't have to trust anyone. these treatments have to be documented and can be reviewed. they want to stop advancing science because science can be used for nefarious reasons. like humans should stop development out of fear.

If they did he's just complain about that too.

and that the issue. fools don't know what they want just scared all the time.

They are beta testers for the tech. That's all I said. If this improves the quality of life for people with sickle cell then great. Doesn't change the fact that the long-term effects of this tech are unknown.

Do you have sickle cell or do you have the sickle cell trait? If you have sickle cell it’s almost impossible that’s you’ve never experienced a crisis.

 

[Standing on business]

I've gone out with two women with sickle cell it's a horrible disease

Yes, you can be perfectly fine one sec then have a full blown crisis of he next.

I'm glad, to hear this. I know a guy suffering from this now. It sounds awful

And that's a choice any early tester makes on a personal level. beyond that like i said this gene editing tech is being tested for things such as high cholesterol and much more. you created this fake scenario where the first thing they did was target brehs when those people volunteer.

"long term effects unknown". you could say that for everything that is new in the medical field. Volunteers are brave and know what they get into.

you have no point despite all your bullshyt. nobody was forced to go there. these people do because of wanting to get passed what they are living with. it's the same in any clinical trial that produces positive results. all the medicine you use all the scientific processes you depend on were once unproven and tested. stop fear mongering for the sake of it.

Black people/illnesses that occur predominantly in blacks are rarely the target for the pharmaceutical industry. This is a major achievement. It costs a grip too (around 1.2 million/treatment)

The company is required to do long term testing for chronic treatments before approval; even longer with gene testing.

This treatment is really only addressing a small subset of those with sickle cell in the USA. Again this isn't addressing the sickle cell disease overall as it is way too expensive.

I have a sibling who received a bone marrow transplant to address his sickle cell disease. But you keep rambling on......

again you said absolutely nothing. you are faking outrage breh

Who is outraged?

I literally made a statement. You jumped to conclusions.
