Your kids DNA is on record in nys.

[Saltwater60]

Your child's DNA is being stored at the state capitol for up to 27 years

This is some scary shit right here. They take your kids DNA and keep it in file for whatever and selling it. This is no good and a huge violation of hipa and constitutional law.

 

[GOPerfect]

No one should be shocked by this.

Everyone who has served in the Military since around 1978 has had their DNA taken and saved as well.

 

[Saltwater60]

Not shocked just scary. This is not right.

 

[GOPerfect]

Not shocked just scary. This is not right.

If I am not mistaken, parents can opt out of this database when their child is born. Most do not.

 

[Deplorable Me]

What do you think all those supercomputers are being used for at the SUNY campuses? Do you think that data really goes away?

 

[Deplorable Me]

Probably looking for the gun nut gene.

Help me out. How does this violate HIPAA?

 

[Pissed Off Patriot]

Help me out. How does this violate HIPAA?

Is it not part of your health record?

 

[GOPerfect]

Is it not part of your health record?

No, it is part of a database.

 

[Pissed Off Patriot]

No, it is part of a database.

So are my kid's health records. Does that mean they can be turned over to anyone who wants them?

 

[Deplorable Me]

Help me out. How does this violate HIPAA?

They never requested permission to collect a sample from my kids.

 

[Shadow2]

NY went with all digital prescriptions, your medication records are open too law enforcement. about the only thing private these days is if someone calls and asks if your in a hospital the reception can't tell them doctors pet dogs name.

thats because most don't have a clue the state is doing this, had I known this was happening, I would have opted out my child

Same here. My ignorance was much greater years ago. But then again, I was one of those citizens who believed in Government and the rule of law.

Glad I have grown!

 

[MadScientist]

Is it easy to opt out of this? I’m assuming some sort of fine print thing somewhere.

 

[Jmac00]

the problem is you say "no, you may not take a blood sample" and when the infant is in the nursery for the evening, they do whatever they want. You'll never know

Damn you’re right. Bastards.
Was reading into this more and I’m likely in the system in mass, since I’m under 30. Honestly it feels a bit violating, a breech on my person. Idk if New York is the same but in mass you can’t even opt out unless on religious grounds. So glad these liberal states really respect personal choice.

If NY wants some of my DNA I'll send it to Cumo in a cup.

If NY wants some of my DNA I'll fling it at Cumo in a cup.

FIFY

For the longest time hospitals have been complicit in this program. They kept the placenta for "studies"... You signed a waiver while being admitted to the hospital, line 2,037 in fine print...

No worries, they aren't doing anything wrong with it, they're from the Gov't and here to help you!

Not HIPAA

 

[SomeSoldier]

If they are in the healthe link system over 175,000 people that dont need access to them do. Oh and the people they hire to watch and monitor this database can have a criminal background.

I cant find the artical I read on this before

I had my daughters placenta collected and cryogenically frozen. Her stem cells might save her one day.

There's a reason they don't tell you.

They notified me after the fact - Gee thanks assholes. I was livid.

 

[@thewheels]

And the 4th amendment

And the 4th amendment

Not at all a violation of your Rights, the parent signs a form giving the hospital permission.

Right...after they've already submitted it to the DB. Fuck that noise.
