The McHenry County, Illinois, Health Department (MCHD) had refused to provide the names of all coronavirus (COVID-19) patients to police but, on Friday, Judge Michael Chmiel ruled the MCHD must do so.
Look at that: An act cited for privacy:
The Health Department refused to reveal the names, prosecutors stated in a news release. Health departments have typically cited privacy concern in withholding such information, specifically the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act.
No act cited by the judge for which he is justifying his authoritarian actions.
