What are the Risks and Dangers of Biotechnology in Healthcare?
Biotechnology in healthcare is not without risks. Some of the potential dangers include:
Unintended Genetic Mutations: Gene editing techniques can sometimes introduce unintended mutations, which may have unforeseen health impacts. Bioterrorism: The misuse of biotechnological tools and knowledge for harmful purposes, such as creating biological weapons. Environmental Impact: The release of genetically modified organisms into the environment can have unpredictable ecological effects.
