Regulations Governing Newborn Screening Services (amending 12VAC5-71-30) - Support the Rule Proposal
 

I wholeheartedly support this initiative. Pre-screening for ALD is critical in allowing treatment to begin immediately, reducing or even eliminating the effects of the condition. This is a no-brainer to help our current and future citizens of Virginia.
