Other news articles are making the news cycle today (AP and others) offering no further detail than China is.

This being Communist China, he was only jailed because the experiment did not live up to what he promised the government, right?

That was what MIT’s take was 4 weeks ago, that his paperwork on his research was flawed.

The bigger picture is that ghouls are creating genetically modified humans. Human experimentation.

But then the Leftist scientists love them some fetal research themselves.

They want to play with fetal stem cells all day long, well if a “cure” is discovered that way it is going to mean needing to create a supply of fetal stem cells to bring to market for patients. Dead babies so you may live.

Marry a Chinese woman, take a Chinese bride, and you risk ruining your decendents forever. There is no telling what or who has been genetically modified in that ruinous country.
