After a medical event, which action protects privacy?

• A. Share with media
• B. Post on board social
• C. Review only after landing
• D. Protect privacy

Answer: (D)

Protecting privacy means keeping a passenger’s medical information confidential and only sharing it with people who truly need to know. When a medical event occurs on board, the best approach is to restrict disclosures to authorized medical personnel and the passenger (or their family) as appropriate, and avoid spreading details to the public or on social media. This keeps sensitive information from becoming public and helps maintain trust and safety. After landing, continue handling any medical information discreetly and ensure records are stored securely and access is limited to those with a legitimate need. Disclosing information to media or posting it publicly would violate privacy, while delaying review doesn’t address privacy in the moment, so protecting privacy is the responsible choice.
