Absolutely incredible news. Growing up, I watched one of my best friend's dads gradually succumb to Huntington's, and knew the fear that he had a 50% chance of suffering the same fate due to the starkly cruel genetics of the disease (thankfully, he didn't inherit the gene). A treatment like this seemed unimaginable then, another reminder of the amazing progress in medicine America risks pissing away with the likes of RFK and Trump.
