Statistics that fail independent corroboration are excluded.

Genomic sequencing generated more than 2.5 billion gigabases of data in 2025, and the scale is changing what “normal” looks like. In the same year, a growing share of genomes carried clinically relevant variants, shifting the line between routine screening and real-world risk assessment. Let’s look at the statistics behind that jump, including how coverage, ancestry signal, and variant rates compare across studies.
