They received a test result … without being tested
“Some patients received a result when they were not tested, while others received an erroneous result (‘immune’ instead of ‘not immune’ and vice versa). The National Health Laboratory (LNS) which carries out serological tests in nursing homes for the Ministry of Health to assess immunity to Covid-19, a concern last week.
Confirming information of 100.7, the LNS speaks of “human error with lag in encoding the results.” Our teams responded quickly to correct this personal data leak ”, specifies the LNS, which claims to have“ taken the necessary organizational and technical measures so that this type of error does not occur again ”. 34 people (residents and staff) are concerned, all questions from a single care home.
The CNPD (National Commission for Data Protection) has been notified in accordance with the applicable legislation on personal data protection, as well as the Ministry of Health as the supervisory ministry of the LNS. The National Health Laboratory performs an average of 620 serological tests per week.
