I bolded all the parts of this post that are not correct. I put in italics anything that is kinda sorta right but not exactly.

 

Reporters and rando's off the street are not covered entities. HIPAA: https://www.cdc.gov/phlp/publications/topic/hipaa.html

You are correct. I should have said no healthcare worker or anyone affiliated with the hospital is going to provide information. Someone from the family could divulge the information if they are not a covered entity.

There’s no new information.

My apologies. It just appeared to me like there was some bickering going on that seemed to be out of place, and I misunderstood all of that.

I find this thread rather disturbing in many ways.  I tend to agree with you and I find some of the conversation somewhat off for this type of thread and the subject matter at hand.  Never apologize for the way you feel about something being discussed here or anyplace else.  They are your feelings and they are as valid as anyone elses.

Pray for her. (Thoughts were not solicited. ***** off, heathens.) Do not question. You have your orders.

When it is in their best interest, you will be further informed.

In no way should the statement have given you the expectation that updates would follow.

Stand by. Stand back.

I had been wondering if you'd drop in. I didn't necessarily expect you to drop an iconoclastic bomb when you did.

I dunno. Based on the look of Matt Pegula's "ice" hats ... it may be better to "stand back."

It’s a reference to the debate that referenced the proud boys. (The ones at the front line of the insurrection, where members have been convicted of seditious activity.)

Careful now.  Someone will end up moving this post to the club.

Am I the only one who finds it ironic that a bunch of Proud Boys were going to a Pride march?

This part of Twitter I can do without. I can’t comprehend how a person would put ANY info out about a person they don’t know, let alone the seriousness of the “rumors”.  People are *****.

A late friend was employee #75 at Twitter.  He lamented the differences between what he had hoped would happen and "the dross it has begot."

Appreciate that.

I will allow: The suddenness and ambiguity of the initial announcement, combined with what appeared to be credible information regarding the ICU being involved, followed by no reports or information** for a couple weeks, made this sort of thing inevitable.

**There's some talk on that upthread; perhaps you could weigh in on the journalism ethics question I posed.

Sorry, don't have time to go through this thread, but I'll simply say, there is a right to privacy when dealing with a health concern, and there is a delicate line one must walk when attempting to pry out information on something such as this. Understanding there will be speculation in the wake of updates, it's incumbent on those in position to provide updates to do so.

That still doesn't make speculating to be OK, or for some in this instance, to post unsubstantiated rumors of hearing something from someone's uncle, who heard it from a nephew, who overheard it at a Wendy's drive-thru.

The truth will eventually come out, one way or another. We weren't told every time Ralph Wilson had a setback or was hospitalized, either.

This doesn't mean I don't check. I do on occasion. But there is only so far a reporter can go, and usually it comes with verifying or discounting rumors.

Otherwise, we wait. When the Pegulas are ready to provide an update, we'll have one.
