  • both my parents have sickle cell trait and didnt know until my mum was tested when she was 3 moths pregnant with me! Guess What, i was tested at 1 month old and i do not have sickle cell anaemia OR am i a trait! Very Lucky but couples should check their status as your unborn child may not be as lucky as me!

  • Pastor deals with spiritual or religious stuff, why are they consulting him for this kind of advice? Is sickle cell mentioned in the bible too? We must seek a doctor!!

  • Why do they only show black people in this videos as carriers? The doctor in the beginning of the video clearly stated that it was a trait prevalent in people of African, MEDITERRANEAN, AND ASIAN descent! Sickle cell is not a just trait/disease carried by just us black people...
