I do realise that as a bioinformatician, but we need more genetic data from multiple people to see if there are any trends with certain genes that do predict illnesses. I really would like in the future to see blood tests test for everything rather than something specific. While it will be argued that this would create a lot of false positives I think that utilising machine learning and datasets from a whole population we will start finding the probabilities of certain illnesses and will hopefully lower the chance of a false positive.

Recently a University in the UK was doing some brain scans for psychological research using volunteers. Two of these volunteers were found to have brain tumors that they would not have found out about until probably too late which is why I wish testing was more streamlined..
