Through cloning, such genes can be removed from the donor cells and as the new clone is created, it is born without any of the genetic defects the other might have carried. Such defective genes, may result in such cases such as down's syndrome, tay-sachs disease, and cystic fibrosis. Any of these diseases can be avoided through the miracle and powers of cloning. As mankind leaves the current millenium and proceeds into the next, many new types of medical epidemics are faced. The biggest and probably most common epidemic is that of the many faces of cancer.
Cancer is the mutation of cells through the process of radiation exposure or genetic makeup.
Currently there are hundreds of different forms of cancer and none are entirely curable. Cloning may just be the only key to open the door, which contains the cure for cancer. Cloning can remove the cancerous cells, assuming it has not spread throughout the whole body, and be replaced by newly created cells. One last medical reason why cloning is such a promising horizon, is that it also has many benefits in the cosmetic regions. Over the past 30 years, breast implants and other forms of cosmetic surgery have become very popular between hundreds of thousands of women.
