Comment on Ask HN: How to be my own genetic disease researcher for my partner?

Bioinformatician here. What are you hoping to find? If you just want to search for variants, and your VCF file is germline variants and annotated appropriately, yeah that will work. You may need to annotate the VCF.

As far as discovering new associations or causal relationships from a single WGS, you are probably not going to have any luck there.
