Only social and legal problems are likely to delay the age of “genome sequences,” or genetic profiles. By 2019 it will have become routine to map infants genes when they are born, Dr Flatly told The Times.This will open a new approach to medicine, by which conditions such as high blood pressure and heart disease can be predicted and prevented and drugs used more safely and effectively.A babys genome can be discovered at birth by a blood test. By examining a persons genome, it is possible to identify raised risks of developing diseases such as cancers. Those at high risk can then he screened more regularly, or given drugs or dietary advice to lower their chances of becoming ill. Personal genomes could also he used to ensure that patients get the medicine that is most likely to work for them and least likely to have side effects.The development, however, will raise legal concerns about privacy and access to individuals genetic records.“Bad things can be done with the genome. It could predict something about someone and you could possibly hand the information to their employer or their insurance company.” said Dr Flatley
