you can say the same everytime you get a blood test done at the doctors. the benefits outweigh the negatives in my opinion, but it will never happen because everyone's got an objection about everything these days. welcome to 2020.
Not really. Your blood test is not analysed to create a full DNA profile. A couple of years ago the NHS in England sold off patient's private data to private companies in the US. That is basically our government selling our private history ( mental health, diseases, drug use, treatment) off to another country for money. Think of being refused medical insurance or treatment etc based on being an 'unhealthy' person that those companies have blacklisted.
Your DNA can be used to track you biologically if you are suspected of anything ( including political affiliations) and criminals that hack the database could track you too.
If that's what you want fine but please don't insist other people are objecting frivolously to something that could have great implications.
