UK contracts grant Amazon, Microsoft, Google and AI firms access to COVID-19 health data
UK government has published the contracts it holds with private tech firms and the NHS for the creation of a COVID-19 data store, just days after campaigners fired legal shots over a lack of transparency.
The contracts describe how the arrangements between the NHS and Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and AI firms Faculty and Palantir (which subcontracts to AWS) will operate. The documents show the tech firms were set to build data models for commercial purposes from NHS training data before being challenged.
