Career choice
In the USA, it is prohibited to think with the result of DNA test by the law, "The Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008", when get insurance or enter employment.
Some people were discriminated by the genetic information in the past actually.

The homozygosity can make only sickle cells, so the people die in childhood, but the heterozygous form is almost always asymptomatic.
