- arcticbull 3y agoAssuming you know which ones are problematic and which one's aren't. We don't. All the test provides is noise, not signal, when used in a low-incidence population. The fact is there's no evidence such testing improves outcomes - if there was we'd just be doing it as part of the standard course of care. Folks are just demanding access to noise. Just go flip some coins instead, and save the medical resources for the people who need them.
