Bad Bill of the Week:
Socialist “Big Brother” Database Bill Infringes on Our Privacy
Privacy of Medical Information in Danger

Providence, RI – The Rhode Island Center for Freedom & Prosperity today dubbedH5541 as its Bad Bill of the Week. The Rhode Island Department of Health wants to track sensitive information about Rhode Island families – without their consent. In a state where government already has far too much control over citizen’s daily lives, big-brother should not be allowed to systematically track such information about their private lives.
Aimee Gardiner, founder of Rhode Islanders Against Mandated HPV Vaccines and a longtime advocate for medical informed consent, writes in her blog post about the many ways the proposed legislation (H5541) would infringe on our privacy.
With the State of Rhode Island already collecting highly personal information about children and their families, the legislation would expand the government’s database to automatically include all adults under the guise of tracking immunizations without their knowledge or consent.
“Such an aggressive intrusion by government into our lives should not come as a surprise,” said the Center’s CEO, Mike Stenhouse. “Part of the progressive-socialist agenda is for government to gather as much information as it can about its subjects, so it can someday decide who the winners and losers of its policy mandates should be.”
Further, a question raised by Gardiner asks whether or not this database-tracking is “dollar driven,” with the the Department of Health and/or doctors receiving a kick-back for every vaccination administered from big pharma-vaccine manufacturers.
Whether it’s a matter of government control or money, this legislation would violateRhode Islanders privacy without their permission. The medical community prides itself on the ethic of delivering services with “informed” patient-consent. This legislation would also violate that ethic.
