Obviously the number references your name in another register. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to request to have the sample returned. Got to love American state

  Doesn't sound like propaganda to me. Seems clear. When samples for out to researchers, they only get the sample and no way to look up who it belongs to. However, officials who have access to the registry could obviously look you up. Hopefully there are controls in place to keep those same officials from having samples tested, but 8 doubt it.

    Not clear at all. FUD. The existence of this registry is never mentioned in the article which makes it sound like samples are unidentifiable.

      Ya, not clear if you didn't read it. The article clearly talks about the registry. It says that the registry is stored in a separate building from the samples.

        Makes no difference whatsoever.
