[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he is black, this would have been discussed at some point with your health care team. If he isn't black, but is from a middle east, mediterranean, south asian background, then he likely had family with the disease to have been tested himself. [/quote] OP here - He has African ancestry (15% according to his 23andMe). The remaining percentage is European.
