Diabetics: We want privacy
By LISA SCHNEIDER

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Diabetes isn't infectious like tuberculosis,
hepatitis or gonorrhea, so why is the city Health Department tracking
people with the disease?

....

The city Health Department has been working with laboratories
throughout the five boroughs to obtain the results of every city
diabetic's A1c results.

If a person wants privacy they need some isolated island to them
selves.\\

As long as we acept interactionwith others we must accept the
consequences.

DiABETES IS A POOR DEFINED ITEM.

I WELCOME ANYTHNG THAT HAS A CHANCE OF DEFINNG IT.

Personally, I have nothg to hide so privacy is way down my list.

As of Today, we do not know that diabetes is not
infectious with a long latency period. We need to find out.
