As @life_is_art___ has pointed out, the #ARHQ & #KaiserHealth (plus others!) are studying patients without clear consent. The #CommonRule was changed in the CURES Act. It allows for something called #AlternativeConsent.

You can obtain consent from patients WITHOUT THEIR DIRECT KNOWLEDGE if the study is deemed
*minimal risk* to the patient.
