Dear all,

I am joigning the discussion, some of you already know me from GEHR times,
so a big hug to them and friendly greetings to all of you.

Re: subject of care, several remarks from my perspective but which may
already have been treated as I am not already through all of the
documentation.

1) I agree with the Donor problematic raised by Eric and Karsten. The
identification of the donor is not everywhere available, but some
characteristics of the donor may well be disclosed perhaps. The same issue
applies also for transfusional medecine of course.
2)  'Presumed' fatherhood is suspicious, when not clearly tested ;-)
3) Subject of care during pregnancy and foetal treatment
4) Adoptions are often not diclosed to the childrens until adolescent or
even adult age.
5) Lab test results samples which are treated anonymous, i.e. HIV and other
sexually transmitted diseases, Drug use etc...

Till then

Mario
