Joe Biden told everyone he had cancer in 2022 in a public infrastructure speech. He probably wasn't supposed to and they hoped everyone would forget. It's already on another thread and being reported on the news.
This outright proves his doctor was lying to the American public for several years!
Someone like that should lose their license to practice.
What makes you think his doctor should make this proclamation? HIPPA laws are in place for a reason wether or not you are a public persona or private citizen.
No, HIPAA laws do not prevent public disclosure of a president's health information. HIPAA protects the privacy of individual health information, including the president's, but it doesn't prevent the president from authorizing the release of information or if other laws require it.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
HIPAA and Presidential Health:
HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) is a federal law that protects the privacy of individually identifiable health information. It applies to covered entities like healthcare providers, health plans, and clearinghouses.
His own campaign goes around him asked for it in 2020. He gave it to them but it said nothing of prostate cancer.
HIPPA completely allows for patient confidentiality regardless of who it is. I won’t argue semantics with you but you can’t force a president’s doctor to disclose any medical information without consent, period.
This LA Times article was arguing about this very thing last year.
