Not a conspiracy theory… true.

Millions of people who have been tested for the COVID 19
with the nasal and throat swabs are also giving their DNA to
these testing labs. They didn’t realize it, never gave it a thought
what these tests can also reveal.

From these tests some labs can also determine if you are a
smoker. Bringing honesty into the factor… probably a million
people who do smoke have told their doctor “No” and have
filled out insurance questionnaires and replied “No”.
Some have got replies from the labs with “Stop Smoking”.

How secure is this information with these testing labs?
Next… the money factor. Insurance companies and medical
conglomerates would love to have this information. Are these
labs bound not to release (sell) their complete findings? Money.
How secure are their computer systems?

DNA and COVID 19 tests can reveal much more than if you are
smoker, alcohol pre-existing conditions and so much more.

Yes, we need to be tested… everyone, so this virus can be
smothered. But, now there is another issue that needs to be
addressed… your DNA and COVID 19 information security.

Can you please source this?
many tests that we have had could be used to look at your dna that doesn’t mean they are. The usually covid tests are used to look for corona virus dna not the person’s.
 
Nikki, as you wrote....

"many tests that we have had could be used to look at your dna that doesn’t mean they are"

Really ?

"The usually covid tests are used to look for corona virus dna not the person’s."

Again... Really?

The fact is... they now have your DNA. Period.

My God... police have been able to get DNA off a cigarette butt or an old beer
can.

I'll go back into my history later from where I read this.

Do you trust the CEO's of these testing labs with 6 digit or more salaries wanting
more? Greed is now rampant among the wealthy in this country and CEOs.

Does anybody want insurance companies and medical conglomerates to have
their DNA and COVID 19 results available to them ?

Would you?

I was JUST saying many people did not realize they were also giving their DNA
to these many testing labs and what they may (might) do with it if requested
by some agency.
 
I am saying the way the test is done is to look at the virus not you. there is nothing magical about covid tests. The samples you give for virtually any test could be hijacked if people wanted to. Have you ever had routine blood tests? Possibly a biopsy? There is no more risk with a covid test than those. If someone in a lab chose to break the laws they could. But I sincerely doubt that the overloaded testing labs are doing anything extra and they would not keep the samples long if at all after testing

frankly unless you or a bio relative are criminals so what? My dna is in several places. They say it is protected and they are forbidden to clone me ( it is in all the consents) but I honestly don’t care if it is protected and noone is going to be cloning me allowed or not

if you want to worry about someone selling dna worry about your trash collector or in the olden days the people at your local fastfood place
 
Ok, I guess we'll just have to trust insurance companies don't try and buy it
for their research or more. But... it is a treasure trove by the millions beyond
some blood samples, tissue biopsies and other procedures. The wanted desire
is to test every person in this country.... everybody.

The troopers from ICE for one could use this info... the fine folks who pick
our lettuce, work our fields, process our livestock would have concern
about this and right now they are the ones being tested more than anyone.
With ICE putting kids in cages away from their parents, deporting honorably
discharged Hispanic veterans, COVID 19 in the detention centers across the
country running rampant - they (ICE) would be above requesting this honey
pot of info? Yea, who would buy that?

There are other reasons beyond criminal why some may not wish to give their
DNA to just anybody.... without law with severe penalties should it happen.

I'd bet the DACA nurses, doctors, those recently honorably discharged and
other successful ones really wouldn't feel comfortable just giving their DNA.
Where they may have given it, if they have, hopefully is secure.

But.... testing labs where no patient confidentiality form was signed concerning
the test being performed?

You miss my point. A covid test is no more risky than your routine lab work. The solution to your concern is avoid all medical test that extract something from you. unfortunately that is the path that many of the people you mention feel compelled to take. Not for fear of their dna but just getting into some kind of record when accessing medical and other important services. The dna would factor in after they are on the radar which understandably is a place thry want to avoid
 
I hope what I tried to present above was the "possibility of"... does not happen.

I just leave it at this... time and the future.

We'll see.

Somebody come up with a new topic... let this fall down the page. :)
