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.
