Genetic testing raises ethical questions amid new genome insights

Fourteen years after Huntington's test emerged, many refuse testing due to fears of job and health insurance loss. Experts warn genetic data could trigger discrimination in health and life insurance and employment, while clinicians note shifts in family perceptions. President Clinton urged Congress to pass a bill banning discrimination based on genetic makeup.
