"Consumer-level genetic testing provides users with a cognitive result of their own genes, and can not cure all diseases." In the view of 23 Rubik's founder and CEO Zhou Kun, the current audience is very aware of consumer-level genetic testing. Low, "There are two extremes. On the one hand, they don't believe in the role of genetic testing, and on the other hand, they exaggerate the role of genetic testing."
This lack of audience awareness is a direct manifestation of the immature market for the entire consumer-grade genetic testing market. The direct effect of the immature market is the lack of supervision and payment.
In the United States, both payers and regulators are showing an olive branch to consumer-grade genetic testing. In China, for the consumer-level genetic testing that is still in its initial stage, it needs to be gradually improved both in terms of policy supervision and participation of the payers.
Over-marketing, user awareness limitations
Genetic testing is currently used in two main areas, one is scientific research and medical- related professional-level genetic testing; the other is consumer-oriented testing, such as risk assessment of susceptible diseases, non-invasive prenatal genetic testing, and genetic genes. And other products.
Chen Jinxiong, director of the Fuzhou Military Region General Hospital Information Center, mentioned in the book "Internet + Gene Space: Towards the Age of Precision Medicine ": the power of genetic science will appear in all aspects of the health industry, and genetic testing for the general public will be assessed for disease risk. For the purpose, and based on the test results for individuals to propose personalized preventive measures. When enough people are exposed to genetic testing products and change their daily behavior (more healthy exercise) or consumption habits (healthy diet) according to their guidance, it is bound to have a huge impact on the relevant industry.
However, consumer-grade genetic testing, which is supposed to be based on medical health, is gradually deviating. Detecting emotional intelligence, detecting second-child IQ, detecting anti-smog index, detecting early love, detecting internet addiction, and collecting genetic testing products for consumers on the market, you will have such suspicion: Is genetic testing reliable?
