Alleged violations of privacy, confidentiality and data protection of HIV positive patients.
According to the information received, the current Law on prophylaxis of HIV/AIDS infection
may not adequately address serious violations of privacy, confidentiality and data protection of
patients. Allegedly, the relevant provisions in the current legislation, such as the Law on Health
Protection, Law on patients‟ rights and responsibilities and the Law on protection of personal
data, are not yet effective in regard to the protection of privacy and confidentiality of persons
living with HIV/AIDS, resulting in frequent breaches in privacy and confidentiality.
