Do you think genetic testing has more potential benefits than possible problems? Why? [closed]

Question

There have been immense advances in technology in most aspects of people’s lives, especially in the field of genetic testing. While there are some possible drawbacks of this issue, i would argue that ADN testing bring many potential benefits.

On the one hand, there are several main demerits suffering as doing genetic testing.  First , it creates tension within a family because the results can reveal information about other family members in addition to the person who is tested. This mean that unexpected results that are received about health, family relationships or ancestry may make people angry, depressed, anxious, stressful and guilty, which lead to the high possibility of genetic discrimination. Second, job problems are seriously affected by the coverage of genetic experiments. For example, an applicant who has enough professional degrees and capacity are not recruited because he has a pice of substandard report from health checking.

On the other hand, there is no denying the significant merits coming from genetic tests. In the first place, this study contributes to promote awareness of genetic disease. It provides personalized information about health, disease risk and other traits, which may accordingly help people be more proactive and promptly preventive. In the second place , gen experiments donate remarkably  to the development of medicine. As a result, the broadening of knowledge about human enables researchers to make more accurate conclusions about health issues and the relative others.

To sum up, although genetic testing has obvious disadvantages about emotional and social affairs , tremendous advantage that it brings is  undoubtedly overweight. By studying about genetic tests, medical researchers may decipher the incurable disease in the future.
