Letter: Totally confused by this one

COVID vaccines and tests have absolutely nothing to do with genetic testing, if that is what the writer is suggesting

Re: Letter: With every new order our democracy is eroding

I am totally confused by this one. The writer quotes a law, that says no one shall be forced to undergo genetic testing, or reveal the results of a genetic test. Then says Alberta Health Services is eroding this law. 

Genetic testing, is when your genes are tested, to find out your ancestry, to check for cancer causing genes, etc. The concern is that if insurance companies get this information, they will not insure high risk customers. COVID vaccines and tests have absolutely nothing to do with genetic testing, if that is what the writer is suggesting.
