New test helps identify rare genetic diseases in newborns

There is a new gene screening that may increase the chances of a doctor diagnosing a rare genetic diseases in newborns. The test includes all and more than the 4,800 genes that are related with rare diseases. A newborn that is suspected to have a disease will be taking a lot of test and it will take a lot of time to do, but with this new test it will be much faster than taking all the other test.  The time saving could help by providing answers to anxious families and probably saving the life of this newborns.

This health event relates to me because there are many family members that are going to have a baby. So this new test could help them.
