I am old enough to remember when cigarette manufacturers were allowed to claim that smoking was good for you! "??? Soothes your Throat" etc. The first scientists who thought that there migh be a link between smoking and ill-health were derided as scaremongers although in the long term they were proved to be correct.
I now read that "Experts" tell us that there is no risk in eating the meat of cloned animals. How do they know this? Cloned animals have only been around for about 15(?) years - Dolly the sheep. If anyone has eaten the cloned cows under discussion it can only have been during 2010. This hardly seems like a sound scientific or statistical basis for saying that eating cloned animals is risk free! Any thoughts?
