Nova Next - For Gene Drives, Resistance May Be Inevitable. pdf

Professor Akbari said this about how the severity of the effect of resistance in gene drive is dependent on the ultimate goal: 
"If you’re able to block all disease [Dengue] transmission for a few weeks, that could essentially eliminate the virus. So you don’t need it to last indefinitely [versus if the goal was to create a lasting alteration for a disease like Zika]. "
