Please using your OWN words give a response to the segment below. Can be anything like do you agree or disagree? Why or why not? Add anything to this statement.

To me, privacy is the right to keep information confidential and out of public knowledge. Privacy is a fundamental right, essential to autonomy and the protection of human dignity, serving as the foundation upon which many other human rights are built (PI, 2017). I do believe privacy is a moral right. Privacy gives us, as human beings, a space to be ourselves without judgment, allows us to think freely without discrimination, and is an important element of giving us control over who knows what about us (PI, 2017). I do not believe there are any cases which public health policy justifies the violation of the right to privacy. The healthcare team should reach out to the patient and notify them before they release any information, and the patient should consent to the information being released.

Please using your OWN words give a response to the segment below. Can be anything like do you agree or disagree? Why or why not? Add anything to this statement.

Privacy- "the state or condition of being free from being observed or disturbed by other people"(Oxford Languages). I do believe that people have the right to their privacy. I don't believe that people should have to have their personal lives exposed for the rest of the world. When it comes to public health and privacy it is very difficult, because I feel people should have their own privacy, but if it is a threat to the community then i also feel as though the community has a right to know. We are kind of dealing with this situation now with COVID. I remember seeing on the news in the beginning of the pandemic that they were trying to make an app so you would know if you were around someone who has tested positive. I'm not sure how that would work, but due to the pandemic and the rapid spread of the virus, I feel like an app like that would be justified. It doesn't have to mention names, just that a person they were around had tested positive.

The patient is a 60-year-old female presenting to the emergency department with acute onset shortness of breath. Symptoms began approximately 2 days before and had progressively worsened with no associated, aggravating, or relieving factors noted. She had similar symptoms approximately 1 year ago with an acute, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation requiring hospitalization. She uses BiPAP ventilatory support at night when sleeping and has requested to use this in the emergency department due to shortness of breath and wanting to sleep.

She does report difficulty breathing at rest, forgetfulness, mild fatigue, feeling chilled requiring blankets, increased urinary frequency, incontinence, and swelling in her bilateral lower extremities that is new onset and worsening. Subsequently, she has not ambulated from bed for several days except to use the restroom due to feeling weak, fatigued, and short of breath.

Past Medical History

Past medical history is significant for coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, COPD, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hypothyroidism, diabetes mellitus, peripheral vascular disease, tobacco usage, and obesity. Past surgical history is significant for an appendectomy, cardiac catheterization with stent placement, hysterectomy, and nephrectomy.
