Biologists warn of potential genetic risks in Pavel Durov’s biological material
Pavel Durov’s offer to fund in vitro fertilization (IVF) for any woman wishing to use his biological material has raised concerns among biologists. Experts point out that Durov’s genome is not publicly available, making it impossible to assess potential hidden genetic risks for future children.
This concern relates to the possibility of passing on unknown hereditary traits or diseases, since without access to the complete genetic data, predicting outcomes is not feasible.
Looking ahead, the safety and ethical implications of using genetic material from public figures will require thorough scientific and legal scrutiny to ensure the wellbeing of potential offspring.
