Isn't that medical reports suppose to be a private and confidential thing? How come can being exposed

Medical tests/reports are supposed to be confidential BUT there is statutory requirement for the medical personnel to inform MOH if certain diseases are detected during testing or treatment.
You may go for anonymous testing and all is good if your test results show negative.... you continue to remain anonymous.
But if your anonymous test result comes out positive...... you cannot remain anonymous anymore. MOH will be notified and you will also be interviewed / counselled and contact tracing of your sexual partners initiated.
Many players dun test in SGP...... they do their testing overseas instead where anonymous testing really means anonymous..... even if the result comes out positive.
