Genetic Testing

Genetic Testing

Genetic Testing
Genetic testing uses a variety of techniques to determine if a person has a genetic disease or condition or is likely to get the disease. Individuals may wish to be tested based on their family history, symptoms of a genetic disorder emerging, or a concern of passing on a genetic problem to their children. These tests were created to improve the quality of life; however, I strongly believe genetic testing will not improve the quality of life because it will result in discrimination, invasion of privacy, and eugenics.
First, discrimination at work and the denial of insurance will result from genetic testing. People with genetic flaws, not all of which show up at dysfunctions, may be denied insurance or jobs. Employers could hire only those people whose genes indicate they are resistant to health hazards. (Genetic Screening and Ethics) In the US, where company-funded health insurance means employers have a vested interest in their employees' demands for healthcare, some companies are already using genetic testing in pre-employment assessment. The use of this testing brings about widespread concerns of discrimination against individuals with genetic predisposition to disease, and the fear of an underclass of unemployable people could emerge.
