Baby A stream hospital remarks: Will kindergarten schools receive the information?

When a baby is diagnosed with swine flu and hospitalized, the hospital usually reports this information to the local centers for disease control and prevention. This is because H 1N 1 is an infectious disease and needs to be tracked and controlled. However, this does not mean that kindergartens or schools will receive this information directly.

First of all, when reporting cases, hospitals usually follow certain privacy protection principles and will not disclose patients' personal information, including their schools or kindergartens. Secondly, even if the hospital provides this information, the CDC will not directly pass it on to schools or kindergartens. Instead, they will process this information through the public health department.

The public health department will decide whether to notify the school or kindergarten according to the spread and risk assessment of the disease. For example, if a baby has severe swine flu, or he/she has a large number of contacts at school, the public health department can choose to inform schools or kindergartens so that they can take appropriate prevention and control measures.

In addition, the public health department will try its best to protect the privacy of patients when notifying schools or kindergartens. They may choose to report anonymously, or only provide necessary information, such as whether the patient has been vaccinated against influenza A and whether there are serious complications.

Generally speaking, although the baby is diagnosed with swine flu and hospitalized, it will be reported to the CDC, but it will not be directly notified to the kindergarten or school where it is located. This is to protect the privacy of patients and to comply with public health regulations and procedures.
