P-o-P is correct.

It has nothing to do with eugenics. That is more taking certain traits from healthy people and selecting those traits over other healthy people.

If you look 100 years ago, people with Down syndrome, cystic fibrosis, etc. never made it to reproduction. With modern medicine, we keep those folks alive much longer and thus they have an opportunity to reproduce and pass on the genes.

It's not PC, but it's true.
