Guest guest Posted October 11, 1998 Report Share Posted October 11, 1998 Just wanted to point out to everyone, that Death records are public records. That is why newspapers are able to print them without fear of litigation. Don't worry about sending them to me to include in the CJD Watch. We still for courtesy sake, will use intitials if that is what the family wishes... AUTOPSIES, these are NOT public records. WE do not want any autopsies. If the deceased has CJD, and it is printed in the newspapers, then it is deemed a public record also. We should, out of courtesy, ask the families if it is alright to print that the person had CJD.... If the records are posted anywhere else in a public document, etc. then it is a public record at that point forward.... We are going to do the honorable thing, if we can locate the family, and ask the families if it is ok to print and document the CJD Victim. Our main goal in this project is to document cases for the purpose of MORE research and eventually, hopefully, a CURE. I have had a couple questions as to this and thought it should be clarified.
