Political (brain washing) motivation that causes thalidomide reminiscent catastrophe instead of staving off the pandemic.
Talk about the cure being worse than the disease.
This is why we cant have nice things.
Glad I am and will stay in the control group.
TYRELL: The facts of life. I'll be blunt. To make an alteration in the evolvement of an organic life system, at least by men, makers or not, is fatal. A coding sequence can't be revised once it's established.
BATTY: Why?
TYRELL: Because by the second day of incubation any cells that have undergone reversion mutation give rise to revertant colonies -- like rats leaving a sinking ship. The ship sinks.
BATTY: What about E.M.S. recombination?
TYRELL: We've already tried it -- ethyl methane sulfonate is an alkylating agent and a potent mutagen -- it created a virus so lethal the subject was destroyed before we left the table.
BATTY: Then a repressor protein that blocks the operating cells.
TYRELL: Wouldn't obstruct replication, but it does give rise to an error in replication so that the newly formed DNA strand carries a mutation and you've got a virus again... but all this is academic... you are made as well as we could make you.
BATTY: But not to last?
TYRELL: The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long. And you have burned so very, very brightly, Roy.
That’s why many of us are leaning towards the so-called *vaccines* as being the real bioweapon.
