Tyler K. Nothing<p>While there are numerous caveats, there are now two gene editing therapies available for people with Sickle Cell Disease, and early therapies have been very successful. It's nowhere near cheap at over $2M for one and over $3M for the other, but it's a start I suppose. Only the 1% can afford such therapy for now, but if sanity ever returns to society, I would hope that empathy will eventually win out over profits in the end. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/crispr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>crispr</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/genetherapy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>genetherapy</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/sicklecelldisease" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sicklecelldisease</span></a> <a href="https://youtu.be/uHWD8RSw4As" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">youtu.be/uHWD8RSw4As</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
