It’s in the newspaper, so it has to be true. Doctors are administering medication by remote control. Scientist implanted microchips in seven women according to a report by the Associated Press. The chips allowed just the right amount of medication to ooze out in exactly the right area for treatment.
If all the testing works out, someday doctors should be able to adjust dosage from afar or just program the chip to a time schedule. Imagine, remote control medicine. Who would have thunk it?
Instead of getting shots, you just get an implant. Wow! I hate shots. And, they can even control when you get the dose of medication to better control side effects - at night while you sleep.
If all this works out, I wonder if we could just all get a chip that doctors could monitor and it would tell them when we get sick and what we have. They could just dispense some magic medicine from a chip that we would already have.
If you add all this to a GPS chip that tracks our every move, we would never have to worry again. Just check Twitter every morning to see if you’re still alive and where you are.
To a grumpy old man, that’s useful information.
