Supreme Courts, politicians, and legislators discuss the ethics of cloning and have mostly come to a conclusion that it is unethical. Since experimentation on the embryos is claimed to be murdering a fetus, cloning has not been allowed the potential it can fulfill.

The human body’s white blood cells are intended to fight off anything that enters the body that does not belong. Transplant are typical situations where the white blood cells try to fight it off and that causes an infection. Cloning could eliminate the rejection in transplants. Scientists affirm that they’ll be able to cure nerve, cardiovascular, and blood diseases in the body (Ballaro and Sprague 1). Those diseases range from Alzheimer’s to Parkinson’s to diabetes (Rugnetta). They also believe that stem cell research would give them an advancement in the understanding of cells and how they react to cancer, thus helping with prevention and treatment strategies (Ballaro and Sprague 1). Finally, therapeutic cloning offers the use of experimentation in laboratories to determine what drugs cause birth defects or are toxic. Additionally, it also would help in studying regular or irregular embryo development (Rugnetta). Millions of patients die every year from diseases, cancer, or birth defects. A prevention, cure, and treatment for these would increase the overall health in the world and save
