Saw THE NERDIEST THING EVER --> Friend downed a cup of gin over a ZK-EVM debate at 2am the other day.
Figured I better do my homework before meeting them next.

@VitalikButerin 1/ There's been a lot of buzz recently about "ZK-EVM" projects.
Projects like @0xPolygon, @zksync, and @Scroll_ZKP have all made announcements, alongside others.
We will explore key differentiation between ZK-EVM & hopefully it brings your zero-knowledge up to some-knowledge!

@VitalikButerin @0xPolygon @zksync @Scroll_ZKP 2/ The goal of these projects is to use ZK-SNARK technology to make cryptographic proofs of execution of Ethereum-like transactions.
This could make it much easier to verify the Ethereum chain itself or to build ZK-rollups that are much more scalable.

Ok, since I have been badgering you somewhat for donations to my @DiabetesUK million step challenge fundraiser I should explain in a bit more detail why...
When I was 21, and at university, I started feeling unwell. I thought nothing of it, maybe a virus (it was November, so flu season) decided to take some time away from lectures and get some rest....
My symptoms worsened, frequent urination and thirst being the main ones, but still, I persisted. Probably something flu-like....
Here's a fun #NINO - the UK's National Insurance Number - [Thread] to start the weekend 👇

Before I start a geeky 'deep dive' on the #NHSnumber, to provide some (personal/professional) context that will hopefully become apparent, I'll just drop these two images here:

So, to begin.

Hi, @BHFDataScience! Please could you point me to a copy of your letter that is reported here:

Ah, no worries - I see it now. You tweeted a link to it, and I see it is on @HDR_UK's website:

On paragraph 3, we very much agree that #trustworthy use of patient data for #ethically-approved #research is good.
But not ALL intended uses of #GPDPR *are* trustworthy, as @NHSDigital's own data release registers confirm:

The Government has instructed your GP to hand over your lifelong medical history – your GP doesn’t have a choice, but YOU DO... until 23rd June.
If you don’t want your family’s #GPdata used & sold to Hancock’s cronies, send/give this letter to your GP:

While @NHSDigital’s #OptingOut page* says a #Type1 “can only be recorded by your GPpractice” & doesn’t even link to the form, it’s worth noting #GeneralPractice is currently the busiest it’s ever been. Why is @DHSCgovuk putting even more work onto GPs?

I'm afraid not. For the 2021 #GPdata grab, to prevent your entire GP history being copied by @NHSDigital you must ask your GP to add a 'Type 1' opt-out to your GP record.
The official form to do that is here:
nhs-prod.global.ssl.fastly.net/binaries/conte…
Or you can use ours:

The GP Privacy Notice* issued by @NHSDigital is on first glance a bit confusing, suggesting you can do a #Type1 "or" a #NationalDataOptOut - but (as the Notice goes on to explain) the latter WILL NOT STOP your #GPdata from being taken...

...and if you do not opt out using a #Type1 to your GP before data is first extracted (from 1 July 2021*) then your entire GP history will be taken on first upload - and will NEVER be deleted!

*Hence the 23 June 2021 deadline, so your opt-out form(s) can be processed in time.

Margaret's blog refers to @NHSDigital's #DataProtectionNotice for the #COVID19 #GPES extract, but somehow omits to mention that people's #Type1 objections (#OptOuts) WILL be upheld:
And also that, according to digital.nhs.uk/coronavirus/gp…, actually *enhanced* #InformationGovernance processes - involving both @TheBMA & @rcgp - will be in place for data #access, which "may" include respecting #NDOP on a "case by case basis":
Meanwhile, @NHSEngland/@NHSX in their notice to health & care professionals (while notably failing to mention #Type1s...) confirms patients STILL have the right to #OptOut of having a #SummaryCareRecord, and that existing #SCR #OptOuts will be respected:
