I have no idea but I am curious as well. The one thing that did stick out was he said it only lasted 48 hours in the body. So presumably, if you were doing something after it left the body, it would have no effect (assuming it works as intended).
- vajrabum 15y agoIn the article the idea of bioengineering Draco into the body was mentioned. My understanding is that in the early stages of pregnancy there's some very weird stuff going on in mammals that appears to involve endogenous retro-viruses. It might be that mammals came into being partly as a result of some reptile having a viral infection that got into some sperm or egg cells. That wouldn't be a reason not to use it as a drug, but the world of biology is very weird and the systems are open in a way computers are not. Viruses have been around for a very long time and like bacteria are embedded into the environment in ways that like fish in water we won't notice until they go away.
- ohashi 15y agoAh, I forgot that about that part. It were engineered into us that is an interesting and very different scenario than what I was thinking of (simply taking it to cure/remove/kill viruses)
