[5: Medical testing. 】
[Start popular science: 3. Genetic screening. 】
[Genetic screening is suitable for detecting individuals or couples whose offspring have an increased risk of developing hereditary diseases, or for prenatal screening ~ screening with simple, feasible and non-invasive examination methods for high incidence, hereditary diseases, and congenital malformations. 】
[This method can test the DNA of both parents to estimate the probability of the offspring suffering from various genetic diseases.] 】
[So as to give the most reasonable opinion.] 】
[If the newborn has a genetic disease, genetic screening can be used to eliminate the risk.] 】
[Genetic screening refers to the use of genetic technology to perform genetic testing on unborn or newborn babies to achieve the best results to ensure that they will not suffer from major genetic diseases. 】
【Successful Cases:】
Her grandmother died of breast cancer when she was 34 years old, and her mother was also a breast cancer patient and had multiple recurrences after surgery. 】
[After genetic testing, people in Kuen also carry a variant gene for hereditary breast cancer.] 】
[If Kui En gives birth to a daughter, the chance of the child developing breast cancer in the future will be as high as 80%. 】
[In order for the baby to grow up healthily, Kuien chose the IVF technology that can manually intervene on the embryo. 】
[First, the doctor used genetic diagnosis technology to test the embryos conceived by the Quiens through in vitro fertilization, and then implanted the embryos that were not affected by the genetic mutation into Quinn's uterus. 】
[Her son, Osidin, is the crystallization of her first attempt at genetic screening. 】
[Osidin's health and happiness led her to conceive again using the same method, and she gave birth to a pair of healthy twins.] 】
Again, this method can eliminate other genetic diseases.] 】
[But screening embryos involves ethical issues.] 】
[Since the fundamental breakthrough in the mapping of the human genome in the old and new millennium, the prospects for genetic diagnosis and gene therapy have been portrayed very attractively by scientists. 】
[Some people have even put forward the idea of implementing genetic screening among the majority of residents, believing that this can obtain new life information, reveal the mystery of disease, elucidate the golden key to the essence of human evolution, racial kinship, aging and other life phenomena, and lay a good foundation for transforming and improving the quality of human populations. 】
[But there are also quite a few people who have raised sharp objections to this.] 】
[It is considered that this practice is ethically contrary to human rights and freedoms, and that there is no reliable basis for biological evidence, and that this practice itself is extremely dangerous.] 】
[First, everyone's genetic information should be regarded as their own privacy, and genetic screening is tantamount to making this private information public, which brings a lot of inconvenience to the parties. 】
[For example, when a person's information about the genetics of a major disease is exposed, he will be snubbed and discriminated against in terms of seeking a spouse, employment, and insurance. 】
[Isn't this depriving him of his right to live normally?]
[Second, should the genetic defects that have been screened out be corrected, and should those with severe genetic defects be forced to refrain from having children?]
[This is a real problem in front of the results of genetic screening. 】
[If it is not corrected and left to develop naturally, then what is the point of screening genetic screening?]
[If it is forcibly restricted and forcibly corrected, then what is the difference between this practice and fascist ethnic cleansing?]
[Third, from the perspective of ethical standards, if a serious problem is found in the genetic screening of the fetus, an abortion can be allowed, but if there is an error in the genetic testing due to equipment, technology, or human negligence, resulting in the abortion of a normal fetus, who should be responsible for this loss?]
Fourth, the results of genetic screening will bring considerable psychological pressure to the parties and affect their quality of life. 】
[In terms of people's natural right to life, as long as they are human, they have the right to live in this world, and there should be no distinction between high and low, let alone be discriminated against because of physical health problems. 】
[What's more, the world is rich and colorful, and biological genes are diverse, even disease genes can only be selected through the process of natural elimination and natural selection. 】
[It is too early to determine the right to live genes based on people's ideas and knowledge alone!]
So, at least for a short time, genetic screening is neither realistic nor necessary. 】
[We should not violate the minimum humanitarian spirit because of the one-sided pursuit of scientific and technological progress, and still less should we arbitrarily deprive a person of his basic human rights and life freedom under the banner of genetic correction. 】

？？？
I don't understand, I don't understand at all.
The ancient people were collectively dumbfounded.
What the hell?
After discussing it for a long time, they had a general understanding in their minds.
Now, they almost dropped their jaws!
"The child has not yet been born, and he knows what disease he has !?"
"I still don't understand, did he cure the unborn child in his mother's womb?"
"It seems like this, how is it possible, can the doctor still treat the child in the mother's womb?"
"The light curtain won't fool us, will it?"
"This is a medical skill, it is clearly an immortal technique!!"
“......"
Qin Dynasty.
Anyone who has studied medicine feels a powerful impact on their hearts!
Treat the child in the mother's womb??
I'm afraid that this doesn't require immortals to descend to earth to do it!
But the medical skills of later generations have actually done it!
The most unbelievable thing for them is that there is such an immortal technique in the later generations, and they are unwilling to use it!!
What is said to be a violation of ethics and a violation of the natural right to life......
Isn't medicine all about healing and saving people?
I don't care what I don't understand.
They were shocked and helpless. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Xianyang Palace.
Ying Zheng was completely stunned.
Being able to predict the probability of an unborn child getting sick in advance is outrageous enough.
The key is to heal!
It is even possible to elaborate on the principles of disease, the secrets of human aging...
Ying Zheng roared excitedly: "The secret of immortality is in it!"
Han dynasty.
Liu Che couldn't control his emotions.
Almost laughing excitedly.
"I understand, crack the secret of genes, and you can live forever. "
He didn't expect that in his lifetime, he would be able to get the message of eternal life.
It's just that he can't figure out why he wants to ban this technology when he masters it.
Liu Che was angry and hateful, he shouted anxiously: "You don't study, I will come by myself..."
After saying that, he was embarrassed.
"What are genes?"
"How do you do that?"
Two problems forced his longevity plan to be terminated.
Tang dynasty.
Li Shimin watched it several times.
I couldn't help but sigh, "Why do you want to ban this technique?"
"If you investigate all the mysteries, won't the children born of them be free from any diseases and live longer? "
Of course.
He also hopes to live forever through this, and this is the closest he has come to immortality!
Ming dynasty.
Zhu Yuanzhang asked Zhu Biao suspiciously: "Biao'er, does it say that the descendants have cured the fetal disease?"
When he saw it, he couldn't believe it.
I even suspect that I am dazzled.
Zhu Biao opened his mouth wide, just recovered from the shock, and hurriedly nodded in response: "Yes, father, that's what it said above, the cancer was cured." "
"It's a god. Zhu Yuanzhang completely believed it now.
He sighed: "If this genetic screening technology is used, none of the descendants of our Ming Dynasty will get sick, let alone die." "
Another dynasty.
Zhu Di completely recognized the huge gap between the Ming Dynasty and the modern society of later generations.
He muttered: "The gene technology mentioned is not also Western medical technology, I have seen Western foreigners, where do they know what medical skills." "
"What the hell is going on here?"
He couldn't believe that Chinese medicine had developed for thousands of years.
It was surprising that it could be caught up by Westerners who did not know how to heal.
