    I think the concerns that may result from this knowledge include; It may lead to discrimination, screening for genetic diseases may limit insurance coverage, and Gene therapy could result in overpopulation. Genetic engineering's ability to expand life has a drawback in that it can cause overpopulation. Genetic discrimination occurs when people are treated differently by their employer or insurance company because they have a gene mutation that causes or increases the risk of an inherited disorder.
