Thank you, Madam Chair.

My first question is for Ms. Scassa.

I think the most important question to answer is, who does the data belong to?

Should the data of a COVID-19 positive case belong to the individual, since it is his or her medical record and he or she has a right to privacy, or should it belong to the state, in order to limit the spread of the pandemic?
