If Dolly the sheep has been cloned among other animals, then can humans be cloned? Have some humans been clone?

There's a few reasons of many types (ethical, technological, and so on). One reason is that we didn't just go and clone a sheep. It took many, many tries.

Many clone eggs were fertilized and grew in the mother's womb, but all of them had severe problems and the vast majority died before birth. One would inevitably survive long enough to be born simply through blind chance (Dolly), but even she had problems. There would simply be no way that anyone could put human fetuses through that.

If we ever clone humans, we'll need ways to use undamaged DNA (since genetic damage was what caused problems for Dolly and the other sheep). Another is that primate cloning is much more difficult, and humans are primates. To my knowledge, it's only been managed once and that was fairly recently.

It will take much more work for humans to be able to be cloned. Then there's the fact that not only are there ethical issues with cloning, but there are ethical issues with the uses of it. Even if we could clone a human and doing so would be ethical, why would we?

Cloning someone and bringing life into the world just to see if we can would be unethical. Similarly, we could clone someone so that they could be treated for a disease by being given the clone's organs, but that too would be unethical. There are many more reasons, I've just gone through a few major ones.

Basically, we lack the technology and knowledge to do it (safely, anyway) and there's very little point. It's not just a case of technological ability though, it's a case of ethics and social problems too. If we can someday know how to safely clone a human and the clone would have no problems as a result of the procedure, maybe then could we consider cloning people.

Mostly for ethical reasons. It's the same reason why we can't test new drugs on humans right away. The technology hasn't been perfected yet, and the clone could wind up with serious health problems.

On top of that, it's not an easy procedure, and requires many attempts to get right. It's not that cloning itself is unethical, it's just that we haven't perfected the technology to the point where we can even start doing trials in humans yet.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
