SNP's are not independent - tag SNP's 'represent a region fo hiily correlated SNP's.

So, can the correlations be used to correct the reported risks in promethease to identify overall risk for a particular thing?

Does 23andme test for highly correlated SNP's, or does it exclude them cause unnecersary???
