Of course they are, why would there be a basic expectation of privacy for medical data, it’s only a HiPAA violation to disclose it.
Someone needs to request the worst of the worst police officers’ personal prescription records and release those to make a point
Unfortunately, I’m afraid it will only enforce a two tier privacy system: one where people of importance get granted a privilege when others don’t…
I’m obliquely suggesting its already that way and it needs to be reconfigured. Said bad apple’s records would likely be treated with
professional courtesylike those friends of the police get out tickets free cards
And then we can celebrate the them at their funeral. So sad how many accidental officer firearm discharges are associated with people “making a point”.
Seriously, what part of surveillance police state do people not understand
It’s not even just your medical data. I picked up a prescription for my mother who just had spinal surgery, and they wouldn’t hand over the pain medication without taking down all of my info. I’ve had no issue picking up any of her other prescriptions. Seems the war on drugs is still alive and well.
Meanwhile, I’ve seen dozens of videos on Instagram of cartel guys floating literal boatloads full of coke and god knows what else across the gulf of mexico.
Watching the US government handle drug enforcement is like watching a toddler eat piss with a fork. Whatever they’re hoping to achieve isn’t going to help anyone and they’re not even trying to do it effectively.
To be fair, I work in hospice and we have run into situations where family members would help themselves to patient comfort meds if they could gain access. It’s not a bad idea to track who has access along the way.
What are they, high or something?
Bring on the charges and lawsuits.
I take ADHD medication and the laws make you feel like a criminal for buying it.
