Hmm - thanks for the link! Good stuff. I think the complaint I have is that in their advertising (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTIY310FGBU&list=TLdNSueMINq...), they feature: - An individual for whom 23andMe correctly identified a heart issue that he later had. - An individual who caught his prostate cancer early because 23andMe told him he was likely to have it. In both cases, 23andMe successfully identified the condition before it occurred. That's about as close to marketing yourself as a predictor of disease as you can get. Granted, the word for word text in the video references "elevated risk", but the overall story they're selling to the public is that 23andMe predicts diseases you'll have. At least, that's my impression. Really interested to see how all this pans out. |
