RE: Newborn DNA Collection Services: Where is the "Informed Consent"?
Dear @truthbeyondlies, Thanks for your excellent description of this special case. As a medical researcher, I agree with @gvincentjosephm, There is a concern about the inappropriate use of these samples in the future. In my opinion, these samples may be a good source of Bioterrorism. But overall, I always look at the positive aspect of it, finding new treatment ways for diseases which are not curable.
I am Beginner in steemit and wanna follow and upvote you to use your interesting content.
...by the way, Thank you for comprehensive information about this case.
Thank you! The fact that you are a medical researcher and said what you did truly means a lot. I could not agree with you more... I worry about what they are doing with the DNA...especially the states that keep it indefinitely. I do understand that research is vital, but I believe that the parents should have the choice to allow the sample to use or if it should be destroyed. Welcome to steemit! I can honestly say this is one of the best platforms for finding like minded people!
in general, I agree with what you say.
thank you
It is our pleasure (not sure if you know that TBL is a team)
