Comments on Total Health Surveillance Near
Yes, that's right - 24 hours per day, 7 days per week medical monitoring is coming, whether you want to or not. (Read
the complete story)
"Obviously, when you are sick and you want this kind of monitoring, this device is a wonderful thing. However, I find myself wondering when health maintenance organizations will decide that patient compliance with doctor's orders is a big problem (they already have), and then decide that they can force compliance with a device like this one."

"Let's wait for the next generation of tools, like namo-implants that can monitor the state of a body and report back to the brain. That can even take action to repair damage or stimulate the body. See Peter F. Hamilton's Night's Dawn trilogy for an example."
