  15. Jane Doe, a phle­botomist (blood drawer), drew a blood sample from Glen Ross, a 30 year old mar­ried patient of Dr. Williams, to test for AIDS. As Glen was leaving the office, his friend Harry came in and they greeted each other. Jes­sica took Harry into an exam room and during their con­ver­sa­tion, Harry told Jane that he was a good friend of Glen’s. He asked Jane why Glenn was seeing the doctor. Jane answered that it was just for a rou­tine test for AIDS When Harry arrived back home, he called Glenn and told him what Jane had said. Glenn called Dr. Williams and com­plained about Jane’s action and said he planned to sue Dr. Williams. Dr. Williams fired Jes­sica. How could a jury find Dr. Williams liable to Glen? After all, Dr. Williams had nothing to do with this mess!
