According to the Hippocratic Oath, would Dr. Vision be permitted to breach confidentiality and tell the public about Wanda’s diagnosis? Why or why not?

Question #1: The Hippocratic Oath (5 points)
Wanda is diagnosed with a very contagious and deadly disease. Her doctor, Dr. Vision, strongly urges Wanda to immediately inform all of her recent contacts (family members, co-workers, etc.) about her diagnosis in order to keep them, and others, from serious harm. Wanda, however, refuses to inform anyone and reminds Dr. Vision that he promised to keep all of her information confidential before she agreed to get tested. The doctor wants to protect others from harm but he also wants to keep his word. At this point, he is uncertain about how to proceed.
* According to the Hippocratic Oath, would Dr. Vision be permitted to breach confidentiality and tell the public about Wanda’s diagnosis? Why or why not?
* According to the Hippocratic Oath, is Dr. Vision under any obligation to respect Wanda’s autonomy? Why or why not?
* Do you think the Hippocratic Oath provides adequate guidance for Dr. Vision in this case? Why or why not?
Question #2: The Nurse’s Role and Responsibilities; Readings: Newton, “In Defense of the Traditional Nurse” and Kushe, “Advocacy or Subservience for the Sake of Patients” (10 points)
A registered nurse no longer wants to perform kidney dialysis upon a terminally ill patient because he is concerned that the treatment is more harmful than beneficial. The nurse challenges the doctor’s orders, stating that he has already performed the procedure on the patient and twice had to interrupt it because the patient suffered cardiac arrest and severe hemorrhaging.

Question #3: Patient Autonomy; Readings: Ackerman, “Why Doctors Should Intervene.” (10 points)
A doctor is treating two patients who have both tested positive for COVID-19. Patient A appears to understand his diagnosis and has very mild symptoms, such as a fever, tiredness and a dry cough. Patient B has a more severe case and is experiencing difficulty breathing. Patient B is also very confused and seems not to understand the severity of his condition. Both patients refuse to follow the doctors recommended treatments.
* According to Ackerman, do both Patient A and Patient B have autonomy? Be sure to explain which of Ackerman’s arguments support your answer.
* According to Ackerman, should the doctor respect both patients’ refusals of treatment? Be sure to explain which of Ackerman’s arguments support your answer.
* In your own opinion, do you think that both patients have autonomy? Be sure to provide your own arguments to support your answer.
* In your own opinion, if you were the doctor, would you respect both patients’ refusal of treatment? Be sure to provide your own arguments to support your answer.

Would the disclosure of the data breach have been harmful to Yahoo!’s efforts to sell their company?

CD 1 0: Information Systems Security
Discussion Questions
1. Most data breaches are found within a few days or weeks. Why did the Yahoo! data breach take so long to be discovered? Would the disclosure of the data breach have been harmful to Yahoo!’s efforts to sell their company?

2. Have you been a victim of one of the large security breaches over the past several years? If so, what was the impact of your data being compromised? Did you have to take any actions to try to secure your data or your identity? Have you continued being a customer (or using the site) of the company that was compromised? (If you have not been a victim, think about how you would likely respond in this situation.)

3. The article reports that several years transpired between the time when the breach occurred and the time when the breach was acknowledged and made public. Why is there so much latency between the incident and the response?

4. Compare this breach to the Equifax data breach that also happened recently. (If you are not familiar with the Equifax breach, take a few minutes to conduct an online search and read about it.) Was the Equifax breach or the Yahoo! breach worse? Be prepared to defend your opinion.
