I would start with a base editor or something. IDK, someone who is smarter than me could tell me whatever is most selective. And I would do tests in a mouse model to measure off-target/bystander edits. Then you have the issue that CCR5 isn't just for HIV, it potentially affects other things. Potentially makes you more at risk for other infections. Has 11:44 < hprmbridge> Eli> other unkown effects on the brain. And the treatment itself was potentially not complete. The baby could be a mosaic. So, not entirely sure if it accomplished what they intended. 11:48 < hprmbridge> Eli> It's not necessarily even the CCR5 that is the issue. You just don't really know what's going to happen when you start modifying the DNA. There was an individual name Jesse Gelsinger who had a virus to deliver genes to correct a metabolic disorder. He dies from hyperimmune reaction. It froze research funding for many year.

Insurers and self-funded employers in the US bear the brunt of 14:16 < hprmbridge> kanzure> this dysfunction, facing over $1.5 trillion annually in claims, with at least 10% driven by preventable overpricing, while patients suffer from surprise bills and lack of control. Meanwhile, a subset of providers benefit from this chaos, maximizing revenue through post-hoc billing tactics and exploiting system loopholes. My proposed solution is 'simple': pay providers 20% more than they currently 14:16 < hprmbridge> kanzure> earn--upfront (before service rendered or same day) and without denial risk--in exchange for them locking in or providing transparent, pre-service pricing (on a case by case basis that they can bid on) and waiving traditional claims-based billing. This model gives providers better cash flow and higher income (a critical variable that presently compels them to fight for today's inefficient status 14:16 < hprmbridge> kanzure> quo), while enabling insurers to regain control over long-term cost growth through mkt transparency and market forces. The insurer will finance this through global capital markets to smooth out the pain: higher upfront costs now, but significant pain amelioration over 5-10 years time (competitive pricing between service providers, inflation eats away at the early provider pay boosts which do not 14:16 < hprmbridge> kanzure> get re-negotiated). To implement this, create a private equity-backed search fund to acquire a regional insurer or TPA, pilot the model in a select metro market, and gradually reshape healthcare pricing dynamics from the inside out.
