EvaluationGenetic screening is when you take a few cells of a developing fetus and test them for genetic diseases such as cystic fibrosis or polydactyly. The reason many do this or support it is it can allow a person to come to a decision about whether or not to have a termination, with prior knowledge as to whether there baby has a serious illness. Also, when people have terminations due to having babies affected with genetic diseases it reduces the amount of people who have these illness in the population, which in turn will reduce the health bill of a population. |
