What I was trying to say, I said incorrectly or without enough information, which was not my intention.
Do I believe they are sequencing everyone’s DNA at birth? I believe, based on this, that they don’t have to, because as long as samples are being stored- they might as well be doing dna sequencing at birth, bc the two are interchangeable.
So it doesn’t matter what I believe re what they are doing at birth. That was my entire point.
I was saying that genomic sequencing wasn’t being automatically performed, but storing the samples equals the same result.

They don’t have to do DNA sequencing when the samples are being stored.
