Military interrogators at the U.S. detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, have been given access to the medical records of individual prisoners, a breach of patient confidentiality that ethicists describe as a violation of international medical standards designed to protect captives from inhumane treatment.

The files, which contain individual medical histories and other personal information about prisoners, have been made available to interrogators despite continued objections from the International Committee of the Red Cross, according to interviews and documents obtained by The Washington Post.

This was commented upon by few bloggers.  Bete, at  Self-Indulgent Record of Idle Time,  copied the article to her blog without comment.  Based upon the context (the themes of adjacent posts) it appears that she is bothered by the report.  In contrast, Dr. Cori Dauber, on Rantingprofs, is troubled by the fact that some people are offended by the report.  Similarly, Greg, on Gregnews,  states:

If these doctors get their way they may, one day, have many patients to see in the form of victims of another horrendous terror attack. Far be it for anyone to counter this sacrosanct opinion of these quoted doctors but I bet we could find some in the medical community, say those related to 9-11 victims or those not with their head up their arse, who would say this is “okay.”
