CBC News reports:
The personal information of approximately 7,500 British Columbians may have been compromised through the provincial government’s PharmaNet system, according to the Ministry of Health.
A letter from the ministry was sent last week to B.C residents affected by the breach. The letter says an “unknown/unauthorized person obtained and used a physician’s login to access PharmaNet.”
PharmaNet is the province-wide network that links all B.C. pharmacies to a central information system.
According to the letter, obtained by CBC News, personal information such as individual names, addresses, dates of births, and Care Card numbers have been viewed.
