Really pushing HIPAA with this one, but with good cause
Yeah the sticker sentence especially. That's essentially the same as saying that the kid got the shot. HIPAA doesn't say "it's ok to reveal private health information as long as you do it in a wink-wink manner." Revealing personally identifiable health information is forbidden no matter how you do it.
Even agreeing that her son was at the doctor was a violation. We can't confirm or deny that a potential patient even came to the building for health care.
They could probably get away with simply saying “I would never recommend any advice that goes against verified safe medical practices.”
