Are they not going to end up with a cloned person? If you use your own marrow, it’s going to be genetically identical to you. I thought cloning people had been banned in the UK and USA.

I mean, they can say it’s fertility treatments, but it really is cloning.

But if they repackage and redefine it, then it becomes legal....providing they can prevent those nosey pro-lifers, religious people and those Evil Conservatives from finding out about it....they spoil all of our fun......

(hopefully I won't be needing to add a "sarcasm" tag to that......)

Both egg and sperm split the genes, each providing half of the genetic make up. The chance of two eggs or two sperms having identical genes is virtually nill.
