23andMe Drops Health-Related Tests

摘要

In response to a warning from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the company 23andMe will no longer provide health information to people who purchase its DNA testing kit. According to a 5 December announcement, current customers will still have access to a 23andMe database noting the health issues associated with their DNA, but customers who purchased its Personal Genome Service (PGS) on or after 22 November will receive only information about their ancestry and their raw genetic data without interpretation.
