Some 27 workers at a New Jersey hospital were suspended Wednesday after reportedly taking a peek at George Clooney's confidential medical records while the actor was being treated there following a motorcycle accident.
None of the employees, each suspended for four weeks, were doctors treating Clooney, administrators said, raising a host of questions about who can view private medical information and what measures are in place to protect patients' privacy.
Clooney, a staunch privacy advocate, surprised many when he said the workers should not have been suspended.
"And while I very much believe in a patient's right to privacy," he said in a statement released to the media, "I would hope that this could be settled without suspending medical workers."
