Today we were at a high-tech genetics laboratory and Walgreens pharmacy.
In the genetics labroratory they are able able to analyse and scan some samples to look for genetic defects like trisomie 21. In Walgreens, a "self serve hospital", you an find lots of medical aid for and against many gouts like headache or flu.
One test in the laboratory can easiliy cost more than tousand dollar, but they can only analyse and give advises, and cannot cure you directly. The pharmacy had a lot of products in the price from two till 15 or more dollar.
Ethically, the genetic check has more potential to disclose a secret than the discount-drugstores. Just with a watch on the chromosomes experts are able to find out if you have some anomalies in your cells, if your parents were close realatives, or if your dad is really your biological dad. This method can otherwise deliver informations about what is wrong and shows maybe ways to reduce the severty of symptoms.
A danger of the pharmacys is, that health people take some chemicals, because he read something about somethingin the internet.
