Biotechnology is a boon when used for good. It is how scientists came up with cures for diseases, and vaccines. Without biotechnology, we would never have found the vaccine for polio, or AZT for the treatment of AIDS, or allergy medications, or prosthetics.
Biotechnology when use for bad is a bane. Like the above person said, bioterrorism is a classic example.
