Every medical therapy was "untested" at one point.

  Do you think invasive therapies should be tested on healthy people who can't give consent? Because not doing that is sort of the base principle of modern research ethics. (it might be one thing if this was an attempt to correct a genetic disease in an embryo, but it wasn't. It was on perfectly healthy embryos.)

    Humans that are not immune to HIV are not "perfectly healthy" when the alternative is that they can be made immune to HIV.
