Notes
- unclear whether direct to consumer marketing of genomic testing results in better health outcomes[1][2]
- results of direct to consumer genetic testing should not influence healthcare decisions[2]
- confirm with clinical testing before using in medical decisions[2]
- issues of third-party identity & protection of privacy discussed[4]
