I’m sure he never watches “House” - they run a test multiple times on the same episode! The SAME doctors!! Doctors make mistakes every single day.

If the doctors hadn’t done several tests on my nephew they wouldn’t have found he had cystic fibrosis.

Repeating tests is not a mistake... it is frequently necessary — the incidence of lab error must be considered and some tests need repeat verification. Giving up your doctor patient confidentiality by putting all your information on a computer - to be hacked at will - and accessed by whatever governmental agency desires is not wise... and probably violates existing HIPPA legislation.
Pentagon computers are hacked frequently, even with their sophisticated protection software, etc...just how safe do you think the average doctor’s office computer system will be? Not very for sure.
This garbage legislation must be defeated!!
