Nurses at San Francisco hospital protest Zuckerberg name after Facebook scandal

Nurses at one of San Francisco’s largest hospitals took the ‘Zuckerberg’ out of Priscilla Chan and Mark Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center on the heels of Facebook’s privacy scandal.

Protesting nurses taped over the sign last Saturday, saying the name makes patients uncomfortable, according to a New York Times report.

“We are in charge of keeping our most vulnerable people private and protected,” nursing administration employee Heather Ali told the Times. “Now people wonder, ‘How much is my privacy protected at a hospital with that name on it?’”

The hospital added Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan to the hospital’s full name as a result of a $75 million donation to the facility in 2015.
