      Hi,

      There is a great potential for gene therapy and the benefits could be vast, especially with the new DNA editing technologies. I think there is a lot more to be done in the research before it becomes an everyday treatment.

      I am leaning towards its use, but with all new therapies we would need to be sure its safe and in the long term there are no adverse effects.

      I hope this answers your question.
