>Current situation in Geneva, Switzerland - 2 critical male patients, one 27, one 29, no prior comorbidities at all. Not sure they will make it. Wife is a doctor and just checked this in their information system.

I don't know about the law in Switzerland but unless you are lying that is something she could be fired for in many countries.

For checking overall status without going into details? All doctors within given hospital have this kind of access here. 'Many countries' sounds rather like very few for this case, aren't you thinking US specifically?

It is as tough in Sweden, doctors and nurses have of course access to patient files but every access is logged and if someone is caught accessing files about a patient they are not working with they will be reprimanded or fired.

The last thing hospitals want to do right now is to fire doctors.

I mean sure, but I was just saying that countries outside US takes unauthorized access to personal medical data incredibly serious.
