Great initiative by Google to help those that e.g. need certain blood types quickly, etc. It’s the user’s choice to participate and to log off once not required.

This is a little bit surreal watching it all pan out in front of me. Google is again expanding its world domination plans. This is a little bit surreal watching it all pan out in front of me.

However, as a civil libertarian, I am reminded of how Bush was caught abusing the powers of the NSA recently. I know in California their experimentation with giving homeless people a smart card that had all of their medical information was very effective. Even if this were all voluntary what would happen to all those who refused to participate? For me the positives outweigh the negatives, but I think of people who carry the AIDS virus or some other health condition that they would like to keep private.

It once took my Gran (who had an eating disorder), half an hour............to work out that the grapes I'd given her to eat were actually made of rubber. I dread to think what her health records would have looked like if she had tried to update them herself.

Hope it goes well and others follow. So many people have previous medical histories that aren't remembered by families or the pt is too ill to convey in an emergency. I see a lot of positives in this. Hope the pilot studies go well. This availability of medical records could save more than a few lives. Hope it goes well and others follow.
