Thank you for your work on this. How do go about ensuring the global community recognizes that MTHFR testing is not necessary? Is there some sort of recommendation that can be adopted by an international group or medical journal?

The World Thrombosis Day Steering Committee has issued a call for action in an academic journal: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/rth2.12739

We also have a patient information sheet and ask Ask-the-Expert video on this: https://www.worldthrombosisday.org/news/post/wtd-publishes-new-resources-recommending-mthfr-should-be-removed-thrombophilia-testing-panels/
