The children’s blood will testify against the parents. How Cal-Orwellian...

Correction applied.

Amazing that Californicator land can find money to do these sub rosa DNA tests and not have money/funding to run DNA thousands of rape kits for years.

If the samples are truly de-identified, I don't have a big problem with it. At that point it's just a large database of DNA sequences. It could be used to track the incidence of genetic mutations over time, but couldn't be used to correlate with things like individual susceptibility to disease, or individual school performance, etc. It could, however, be used to correlate many things with ancestral origins etc.

“The remaining blood becomes “property of the state,” “

Well why should that drop of blood be treated any differently than the rest of the body? /s

One of my siblings gave me an Ancestors DNA kit for Christmas.

I checked with our adult children if that would be okay. As my DNA test might impact them or their kids.

They said go ahead and do it. Apparently, this was not a hard secret.

Our adult off spring and their spouses said that every time we have blood drawn for a lab test, that probably goes to some DNA collection that we know nothing of.

Again, it is amazing how California can find money for this and not be able to fund the DNA testing in rape kits for years. Of course, they probably made money from the tests of new born and would have to pay for DNA testing of rape kits.

Well, California wants single payer health insurance and has started surreptitiously building it - currently under federal funds. If they succeed, they can “share” the DNA information on California residents with their medical insurance arm to determine who is worth “saving” or treating. Hey maybe they are already selling it to private insurance companies to help them vet applicants. Could share the information with state and local government agencies to help them determine who is worth hiring (help them manage their employee insurance). They could share it with colleges and schools to help them determine who should be admitted or receive financial aid/scholarships). The uses are endless.
We have been used without our consent of course, but that doesn’t matter. The State can sell our blood, collect the profits, and weed us out of countless venues -what’s the harm.

C’mon, You Guys! They started this in 1983 to s-l-o-w-l-y work up to micro-chipping and bar-coding your kid at birth. Better check the back side of their ears for tattoos...just in case.

In the meantime, just lie back and think of England.

NO FR reader should be surprised. They f*ckheads in CA OWN you. They own your blood. They own your rights. They own your mind. They own your kids. They own your money. Don’t be shocked when you hear that they take blood without telling you. They already send kids to the sex-”change” doctor without telling parents. They already give girls an abortion without telling the parents. They already teach fist *****ng without telling the parents. They already promote gay sex without telling parents.
So this is no surprise at all.

“These samples are needed to create new testing technology,” said Fred Lorey.

I'm sure that Josef Mengele justified his abuses as "needed," too. These newborns still have fourth amendment protections no matter how young they are. There is no probable cause for the state to take their DNA without consent, and there should be no "opt out" construct that depends on stressed out parents in labor to affirmatively choose.

California the communists capitol of America. Next they will install a chip in all babies born. We are on the verge of the loss of freedom and forever a slave of the State. Will go national wide within a few years. Watch and see.

but parents can request the state destroy their child’s blood samples.

And given the trustworthiness of the State, I'm certain that they will get right to this...

A little more info. It looks like parents (or insurers) pay $130 for every test.

With nearly 500,000 births a year, California’s biobank is, by far, the largest and is crucial for research nationwide.

According to the Department of Public Health, more than 9.5 million blood spot samples have been collected since 2000 alone. The state has stored blood spots since 1983.

As a result, California can now test newborns for more than 80 different disorders, more than any other state. The standard panel nationwide is around 30 disorders.

But researchers with the California Genetic Disease Screening Program aren’t the only ones with access to samples stored in the biobank.

Blood spots are given to outside researchers for $20 to $40 per spot.

Regulations require that the California Genetic Disease Screening Program to be self-supporting.

“It has to pay for itself,” Lorey noted. Allowing outside researchers to buy newborn bloodspots helps to recoup costs.

According to biobank records, the program sold about 16,000 blood spots over the past five years, totaling a little more than $700,000. By comparison, the program reported $128 million in revenue during the last fiscal year alone, mostly generated by the fees parents pay for the test. Parents are charged around $130 on their hospital bill for the Newborn Screening Test itself.

Link to the federal law authorizing the Newborn Baby Blood Sucking Test.

Started by a Dem and signed into law by Obama.

It’s just what commies do. They’ll be using kids for experiments soon, and calling the ones who object Nazis.

I've always wondered why that was never common practice......

There are morgues all over the country with unidentified dead bodies that could be identified if they were in a DNA database. The owners of all the feet that have washed up on the shores of Canada could be identified......
