Abstract

A ban on human cloning should be enforced until a regulatory agency can be formed to ensure that proponents of cloning can justify the use of this reproductive technique. Cloning of humans is problematic because it would deny the cloned person his or her uniqueness. Most scientists agree that a legislative ban or voluntary moratorium on human cloning is needed.
