Reply to comment by YareSekiro in A bold effort to cure HIV—using Crispr by Sariel007
His name is He Jiankui and he was released in April this year. He gene edited twin girls to become immune to HIV. The twin girls are being monitored by the Chinese government for a long term study now, but gene editing is still in an ethical grey area due to a lack of long term research. Both girls have been reported as being healthy so far.
