Explanation:

Genetic testing is most useful for those who may have a genetic - related need. People with symptoms similar to a known genetic disease and in need of gene therapy would benefit from knowing their genetic makeup for proper treatment. Family members with a known genetic disease may already know their status in some cases. Just being sick doesn't necessarily mean a genetic cause. Expectant parents may not always need it unless there are risk factors.
