Scary stuff. I would urge all of you to write to your GP and object in the strongest of terms, and make it clear you intend to sue if your medical records are shared without your explicit consent. This is serious stuff.

People are right to do more research. Sadly so many dismiss it out of hand immediately as “this must be wrong” is a huge part of the problem. Bad things happen when good people do nothing etc.
