geneselfwould genetically test fetus
Text of this Question or Item 
1566. Today, tests are being developed that make it possible to 
detect serious genetic defects before a baby is born. But so 
far, it is impossible either to treat or to correct most of 
them. If (you/your partner) were pregnant, would you want (her) 
to have a test to find out if the baby has any serious genetic 
defects?
