There should be some mechanism in place for Doctors to get this information quickly, and by nature that would probably involve the government

This is an insane proposal. If doctors could see such info, so too could the literal Nazis running the government. What you're proposing as a centralized repository for medical info would instantly become a literal "round up these people and put them in camps" list.

Well everybody’s correctly freaking out the last month.

But It should have already existed for medical use. Back in 2010, it’s not insane.

under pre trump 2.0, everyone has been suffering from a lack of this. It’s almost killed me twice , and has definitely hurt me. Due to inability to synch medications mostly.

European countries have this, you don’t have to start treatments over or get mistreated due to lack of a central database because your doctor retired, or you moved, etc. or you are out of your area and they don’t know what meds you’re on and you end up in the hospital.

That’s paranoid for paranoid’s sake under normal conditions.
