Even a caretaker or next of kin can be barred from the details of a loved one's medical or mental condition or status. HIPPA is really a result of the AIDS epidemic. People who may have had the disease were worried that they might be outed as being gay. Time has moved on. Gay does not have the stigma it used to have and we now understand you don't have to be gay to have HIV. At a certain point it may just be obsolete. Just like taxes and benefits, once something is approved and put in place, it's damn near impossible to get rid of it. You mean like useless gun laws? The only reason the federal AWB is gone is they wrote a sunset in it. The loopholes had been exploited to the point that it was meaningless anyway. We imported and sold ~2 million Chinese "thumb hole" AK clones (and other similar weapons) in the 10 years after the law was passed. That was many times more than they had sold or imported previously. The revelation that this Vegas guy was actually using a bump stock sort of gutted the intent of NFA34 too. If there is a will, or a loophole, there is a way .... like Harry driving to Virginia to get an otherwise illegal cache of hi cap magazines. |
