No, it's an opinion that I have. I believe that if people have access to their own genome sequence, and it might be obvious that they have some susceptibility in the future to getting some of these chronic diseases—it might be some cancers, they might be prone to Alzheimer's disease or to type 2 diabetes—I believe, with that information, some of them, not all of them, will change their lifestyle to live longer, healthier lives. That to me is a tool for prevention. I'm thinking of it more as behavioural lifestyle changes rather than anything else.
