Why America Is Seeing Trump Through HIPAA-Colored Glasses

Description

Although Americans are understandably very concerned about the health of US President Donald Trump, the public has no right to know. That's because his physicians are bound by HIPAA privacy laws, which allow them to only disclose to the public what the patient has permitted them to share. According to Business Insider, President Trump's doctor has declined to answer several major questions about the president's COVID-19 case. Dr. Sean Conley refused to say whether Trump had gotten supplemental oxygen. They later acknowledged he had on two occasions. Dr. Conley would also not say when Trump's last negative COVID-19 test was. There are HIPAA rules and regulations that restrict me in sharing certain things for his safety and his own health and reasons. Dr. Sean Conley
