Paul Chambers🚧<p>Two Long time University Hospital pediatricians in Cleveland, <a href="https://oldfriends.live/tags/Ohio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ohio</span></a> fired for sending unionizing text to fellow doctors after getting numbers from through a digital directory that is often used for personal use. It's being treated as a personal privacy data breach by the hospital system.</p><p>"People use it to plan baby showers or fundraisers when a colleague is sick. It's actually very helpful for those sorts of things, so it makes sense to look for phone numbers on this app, to reach out to our colleagues to say, 'Hey, would you be interested in coming together with us to form a union to try to strengthen our voice for our patients?' And that's what we did," Beene said.</p><p>At least 5,000 people have signed a petition demanding that the two doctors be reinstated.</p><p>More than 30 Ohio Representatives have also signed a letter to UH CEO Cliff Megerian calling for a prompt review.</p><p><a href="https://oldfriends.live/tags/unions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>unions</span></a> <a href="https://oldfriends.live/tags/data" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>data</span></a> <a href="https://oldfriends.live/tags/infosec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>infosec</span></a> <a href="https://oldfriends.live/tags/privacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>privacy</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://www.news5cleveland.com/news/local-news/2-university-hospitals-pediatricians-fired-for-sending-unsolicited-texts-to-other-doctors" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">news5cleveland.com/news/local-</span><span class="invisible">news/2-university-hospitals-pediatricians-fired-for-sending-unsolicited-texts-to-other-doctors</span></a></p>
