    Born with an extra strand of DNA

    Boy, two, is first person in the world to be born with an extra strand of DNA


    A two-year-old boy has become the only person in the world to be diagnosed with an extra strand in his DNA.

    Brave Alfie Clamp was born blind and with severe disabilities, which led doctors to carry out various tests.

    They revealed his seventh chromosome has an extra strand of material which has never been documented anywhere in the world before.

    Doctors are baffled at his condition, which is so rare it does not have a name.

    So They're finally starting to admit It now eh ? Good...

    cheers

    My bet is that if They really checked - And I bet that They are clandestinely (The Genome Project for instance) - They'd find that quite a few People are showing more than two Strands of DNA now...
