HIPPA is a law written to protect gays that wanted to remain in the closet.

 When a person's health records are leaked to the press and that person has AIDS, many readers jump to the conclusion that the infected person is GAY. The tragic side effect of the HIPPA law is that it prevents sharing of data between doctors offices. In 1976 I worked for a computer company that was going to revolutionise medical record keeping and distribution by using computers to store health records. That dream failed to happen because of this LAW. Every time you go to a new doctor you have to tell them all your medical history because they are prevented from accessing your health records. I personally don't care if someone else is GAY. However, this law does cause problems for the majority of people... What if you go to the hospital and you are so badly injured that you can't talk? It would be very good if an emergency room could access your medical records. But they can't. Because some people don't want to come out of the closet.

We ought to repeal HIPPA. Not many people get AIDS anymore because a huge number of Gays already died. The need to keep health care records secret is outweighed by the benefit of sharing it. Health Information Privacy Protection Act.
