P. 175

 Donors are replaceable, partners are not
Is this a valid argument?
No, in the sense that screening a partner need not result in changing partner, but can also result in PGD.
Where PGD is available and affordable, the argument is not convincing.

 Product liability
Sonja Pedersen, mother of a donor child affected with neurofibromatosis: “They earn a lot of money doing this. And one has a responsibility to make sure that the product, so to speak, is all right.“ (BBC News, 25 September 2012)
Is this a valid argument?
To a certain extent, yes. However:
It is impossible to rule out all genetic risk factors and costs should not be prohibitively high to ensure access.
Responsibility can also translate into providing more risk information.
