Some of these diseases include hemophilia and diabetes (Cloning: How and Why, video). Scientists also believe they may study HIV and cancer from practicing human cloning (Cloning: How and Why, video). The more they study human cloning, the more it will help them study diseases that can be removed before a baby is born. Therefore, the practice of human cloning will help scientist make advances in biotechnology.
The practice of human cloning is now illegal in a couple of countries which include US and Russia (Hopkins, CNN). Most people are worried and few are excited about possibility of biotechnology. A few months after the birth of Dolly in 1997, President Bill Clinton banned the use of federal money to support research into human cloning (Klotzko, p. 125). Another few months later, 20 states supported the ban on experiment of human cloning (Klotzko, p. 126). However, not all people agreed in the United States to ban the practice of human cloning. Most scientists are eager to experiment human cloning. If it's illegal here in the United States and Russia, what about the rest of world? How can we control human cloning world wide? For instance, in London, England, a Italian doctor already has a women carrying a clone which is due early as January, 2003 (Hartman, CNN). It is unknown why this women is giving a cloned baby but let's say it's being cloned because of a dying child. She may give birth of a clone baby but it doesn't solve the overall problem. Many people dies of diseases but does this mean clone them before they die to fulfill our desires? Most people will disagree. There are lots of children in these days that don't have parents for variety of reasons. The couple can adopt a homeless child rather than choosing a clone. Cloning a child who had died or is dying is not a way to replace an original child. If England banned human cloning, then this woman wouldn't have the chance to carry a clone and would help a child that does not have a parent.
