Bill > HR5006

This bill, called the Health Privacy From Global Bureaucrats Act, directs the Secretaries of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Treasury to prevent the disclosure of specific types of sensitive information to international entities. Specifically, the bill prohibits these government officials from releasing taxpayer, patient, and vaccine-related data to the World Health Organization (WHO) or any foreign government. The legislation appears aimed at protecting individual privacy by restricting the sharing of personal health and financial information with international organizations and foreign governments. By mandating that these two federal departments take necessary actions to block such data transfers, the bill seeks to create a legal barrier against potential global information sharing that could compromise personal data confidentiality. The bill is concise, focusing solely on establishing this data protection mechanism without providing extensive detailed implementation instructions.
