***I NEED HELP WITH THIS QUESTION PLEASE
In some cases, people who test positive for
genetic testing can receive preventive
treatments. For example, people who test
positive for the breast cancer genes BRCAI
and BRCA2 can have a preventive
mastectomy (breast removal surgery)
before they develop the disease. In other
cases, no preventive treatments are
available, but frequent monitoring can help
detect a disease earlier, when it's more
easily treated
What ethical or professional concerns does
a health-care professional need to address
when he or she has a patient who wants to
prematurely treat a genetic disease? Do
you think genetic testing should be part of
normal preventive healthcare? Why or why
not?
