Leak of Pmc data resulted in spread of personal details of patients over social media.

Names, locations, contact numbers, medical history, which is part of the Google Maps link created by Smart City officials, which was accessed by the public.

The information spread like wildfire among citizens.

The link displays information about all patients in the city, with red dots marking the locations of the individuals along with their addresses.

If one clicks on the dots, the entire history of the patient with the name, test details, hospital where treatment is taking place, and details of where and when samples were tested were all visible.
