Permalink Explosive report: 98% of newborn babies are genetically screened

"Newborn Screening in America," a report from the Council for Responsible Genetics, states:

"Before they are even a week old, ninety-eight percent of the 4.3 million babies born annually in the United States have a small sample of blood taken from their heels." The report continues: "These newborn bloodspots (NBS) are then screened for a variety of inherited conditions and may later be stored in state-operated databases...parents are often unaware of these screening programs and their consent options."

This shocking national program, flying under the radar, is of course explained as a humane medical undertaking. But there is no across-the-board genetic treatment for any disease or illness. All the "maybe-possibly-in-the-future-cure" nonsense does nothing to justify this rank incursion on newborns and their unsuspecting families.
