Because remember, it’s better to give grandma the pill.

Hell, if he didn’t do anything for his mom making six figures and waited two months to even acknowledge the grandmas ashes (to be fair, he sent flowers and a letter to the funeral FRIENDS from the bank gave), while waiting two months to even go to Hawaii... insert pre-election night tear here. She only raised him when no one else did and was the only parental figure left.

Fact: If you kill babies, you’ll kill others.

“...But electronic medical records won’t accomplish any of these goals if patients fear sharing information with doctors because they know it isn’t private. When patients realize they can’t control who sees their electronic health records, they will be far less likely to tell their doctors about drinking problems, feelings of depression, sexual problems, or exposure to sexually transmitted diseases.

Today our lab test results are disclosed to insurance companies before we even know the results. Prescriptions are data-mined by pharmacies, pharmaceutical technology vendors, hospitals and are sold to insurers, drug companies, employers and others willing to pay for the information to use in making decisions about you, your job or your treatments, or for research. Self-insured employers can access employees’ entire health records, including medications. And in the past five years, according to the nonprofit Privacy Rights Clearinghouse, more than 45 million electronic health records were either lost, stolen by insiders (hospital or government-agency employees, health IT vendors, etc.), or hacked from outside.
