I really have to wonder about the reliability of this test. I know two people that were to be Downs and the parents refused to terminate. Neither were born with it. One is now a network engineer and the other is a professional hockey player.
We as a nation should really seriously question these tests.
I know of another person (different condition) that the doctors said would “never be more than a vegetable, wont even ever learn to sit up” who is now an architect.
Maybe its not so much the tests as the interpretation. The person that graduates at the bottom of their class is still called “doctor”.
My understanding is first they take measurements in sonogram. If they have a suspicion they do a sample of amniotic fluid (needle thru the belly). Don’t know the nature of that check but the US thing can obviously be very dicey.
As a patient dealing with lots of issues, I know too well how inexact everything is and how they can’t just diagnose with exact tests either. Almost nothing is cut nd dried in medical.
One of the doctors testifying about the SARS-CoV2 vaccines said he didn’t test patients to know what was wrong with them. He treated them for their presenting complaints. There are so many ways that tests can go wrong. Meanwhile an intuitive, learned doctor can start treating the patient - in the case of a pregnant woman, patients - without having to wait for tests.
These tests for genetic abnormalities are enriching baby-part-sellers like Planned Parenthood. They get rich off selling organs and parts from fetuses aborted at 20+ weeks.
