of course i dont know the full reason or reasons but from a business standpoint they want to keep it a secret because they might loose investors etc. like If people found out bill gates had that illness stocks would drop because they would be worried he might die or be unable to fully take care of the company. Same for Jesse since he will take over the company.
He also is the type of person who likes to be in control. And he would be loosing some of this control if people knew. he likes to appear strong and invincible.
Also if people knew it would be a danger...some people might not like the company or try to kidnap him for ransom, or just plain hill him and if would be bad to know he has this.
Well, hemophilia is a genetic condition because it results from close relatives, perhaps even as close as brother and sister, intermarrying or, rather, -breeding. I think that would be a huge secret someone would want to keep hidden... no...?
I've taken some biology classes and I never learned that hemophilia was only due to inbreeding. People have it due to rare unfortunate mutations in the genes, many people actually have it even thought they have no family history of it. So again, I find their overreaction in the manga a little over excessive. But the earlier commenter makes sense, that from a business standpoint it is detrimental.
I Agree. And also think the fear also comes from Jesse's/the Brown family's feelings of superiority over others (wealth, status, intellect/physical appearance). They wouldn't want any a genetic disorder to taint that image.
like a lot of people have said, having others know that he is a hemophiliac could be dangerous because he could be targeted as someone to kill/threaten easily.
since hemophiliacs have blood clotting issues, even very slight blood wounds are dangerous. like he could very well bleed to death from a small cut. (hence why he was freaking out when he accidentally cut himself)
Can someone explain-why was Jesse so afraid of letting people know he had that blood condition?? Even when they were still in Moritat, they made it into SUCH a huge deal, when Law pretended Jesse created Moritat JUST to hide the fact that Law had the condition. Like, it's a sad disease, but it's not TABOO or anything. That's one thing that keeps confusing me.
