California Begins Newborn Screening for ALD It’s official, California is testing their babies for ALD, at the rate of 1,400 births per day! In addition to this screening, they will also retroactively screen blood samples from newborns born on or after February of this year. This is a huge milestone for the ALD community, and the California Department of Public Health estimates that up to 100 California babies will be referred for follow-up appointments based on the results each year.
