defective

A farmer who killed his three-year-old son when he reversed a defective vehicle into him has been jailed.

“This would have been a moment for the 9th Circuit to recognize that a product that recommends children to adults is defective,” said the boy’s attorney Carrie Goldberg.

The new work builds on that success by injecting healthy copies of a defective gene into the back of a child's eye, very early in life, to treat a severe form of the condition.

On the other hand, they wrote, allowing potentially defective drugs to be widely used is akin to "drinking poison to quench thirst".

The distrust is being pushed by some opposition politicians, who have said the vaccines will alter the genetic make-up of livestock, potentially resulting in defective animals.
