Medical privacy
Medical privacy means that information about your health is only shared with people who are allowed to know it. For example, when you go to the doctor, the doctor needs to know about your sickness so they can help you feel better. But the doctor won't tell your friends about it because it's private. Nobody else can see or hear your private medical information without your permission.
