Abstract

The treatment of health-related data is relevant not only at the individual level in the environment of individual health care, but also from the collective point of view, valuing health as a social good. In the health aspect as a community good, the use of data in research must be surrounded by adequate guarantees to protect the rights of subjects, but with the necessary flexibility and rationality so as not to hinder the work of public health research, which also includes epidemiological research.
