I've got this saved and I'll watch it and reply soon, but my kneejerk reaction is "this is someone who probably doesn't actually understand what they're talking about" simply because as someone who is in healthcare IT, I can assure you privacy is taken extremely seriously and I can guarantee medical privacy today is far better than it ever was before.

"As explained by" someone regurgitating the views of the "Citizens’ Council for Health Freedom", an anti-vax, right-wing organization that opposes HIPAA, Medicare, and government involvement in healthcare in general.
