 Takeaway: Haldane considers the effects of deleterious mutations. Estimates are given for mutation-selection equilibrium allele frequencies and average reduction of fitness in the population. Fitness reduction is only a function of, and proportional to, mutation rates. The average individual in a population has a fitness that is a small fraction of the maximum theoretically possible if the genome were free of deleterious mutations.  Takeaway: Haldane considers the effects of deleterious mutations.
