The Human Genome Rights
- BioFoundation
Everyone has the right to know one's own genome information by birth.
It is the most fundamental right for a biological information object in the universe to know one's own information construct such as one's own genome. It is about knowing oneself and understanding the network of interaction partners around one.
Everyone has the right to protect one's own genome information by birth.
It is the second most fundamental right for a biological information object in the universe to protect and conceal one's own information construct such as one's own genome to protect one own interest and dignity in the biological interaction network.
What is the human genome rights?
Every biological information object, such as a human being, is born with a set of inherited genetic information. That information was not chosen by him- or herself before one's own birth. Individuals can not opt to be born or not although one's previous genetic entities predispose such a birth (eg., parents agree biologically agree to give births). Each individual can not choose one's own composition of such genetic information at the time of birth. The human genome rights is a social agreement among us in the biological interaction network that at least each one has the right to have an access to one's own genome make-up so that one knows one's own genomic construct to understand oneself and cope with one's life with one's own decision and responsibility.
The second chapter of the human genome rights is to provide options to everyone to manage, enhance, and protect one's life.
The third chapter of the human genome rights is to provide a social contract to everyone that they are not discriminated by his or her genomic make-up in acquiring equal opportunity in societies.
