Hasn’t had a full work up yet, so we don’t know the extent of the blockage or what procedures he might need. We have no family here, just one great friend but he’s traveling for work this week. I had to leave him alone in the hospital. I do all the meal planning and cooking, I’m 80% responsible for his diet. I just feel awful.
With that said, I have an interesting observation. He was not asked his vaxx status. How can you track vaccine injury if you don’t ask? I’m really torn here because I don’t want to disclose my status because privacy, but I’m growing concerned that we won’t have the data to conduct any research relative to vaccine injury.
Edited to update: he went to the cath lab this morning and his arteries are clear! No blockage!!! We have a few more tests to figure out why his blood showed a heart attack but this is great news! Thanks to all for the prayers!
I spent 5 days in the hospital 6 months ago and they never asked vaccine status because it is illegal to ask in my state.
HIPPA is applicable to ALL states. "Authorities" have asked me and I told 'em it was none of their business. I work in health care and I asked my boss if I had lost my HIPPA right and they said Absolutely NO. They have never asked me if I've been jabbed.
The Governor signed a state law making it a crime to ask vax status. That applies to businesses, most medical facilities, employers, etc., etc,.
There are some exceptions but very few facilities are willing to risk the consequences.
What state? Certainly can't be WA state.
Here in Ohio, the hospital system I worked at asked all employees to check off what was applicable: fully vaxed, partially vaxed, unvaxed. Then we were told to sign it to allow them to use/disclose in whatever way they deemed “furthered their business model. I wrote back a sentence, “ no I will not disclose this information, d/t HIPPA.” I assumed they would: 1) share this with the government, 2) share this with the health insurance company that covers employees, 3) place in a data base that could affect any future employment. HR has my manager “talk with me so I could fully understand the reason for signing the form”. I told my manager, “believe me, I fully understand their intent” and I said it with a sarcastic tone and a smile. When the next step was a compulsory flu vax, I said I am resigning effective immediately. (They knew my intent was to retire in two months anyhow, so it was a no brainer.)
You know so much that you might want to get the acronym correct HIPAA
Hey, I'M the only one allowed to correct spelling, handshake!

Never seem to get that right even after 21 years! I think I'm too old to learn new tricks, beside i figure everybody knows EXACTLY what I meant anyway. Well look at that....I didn't even capitalize my i.....
HIPPA has nothing to do with this. It only applies to medical providers, insurance companies, and other healthcare type of contractors that come in contact with PHI. It would only apply to your employer if your employer managed your PHI as part of a self administered health insurance policy. Most simply buy it from a company. There has been debate within Health & Human Services as to whether obtaining employees jab status would put them in possession of PHI covered by HIPPA and require associated protections; but HIPPA doesn’t prevent them from asking and acquiring - only possibly having to comply with the data protections.
You might be surprised to know that most state medical boards can simply demand your records from a provider and get them. No warrant necessary. It has even been upheld that cops at the hospital in quite a few circumstances can simply seize your medical records on the spot with certain crimes.
The Americans with disabilities act actually covers this. They have to do an “individualized inquiry” and a couple other steps that every single jab shill business is skipping right over. This will catch up to them. And might already have started.
Because who cares about a warrant, right?
Ya its ridiculous. You have 4th amendment protections unless you don’t. They have carved out so many exceptions and exigencies it has lost most of its meaning. All because “we can’t have the guilty get off on a technicality” so they uphold or reverse with the stupidest logic.
What do you mean, state medical boards?
The boards that license the practice of medicine in the states.
