Would you like to Remotely Monitor/Track the Stress and Pain Level of your Loved Ones in the Hospital, Nursing Home, Hospice, etc.? - especially if they cannot communicate.

 



 
I think this could be done today with Smart Watches and Smart Phones monitoring the Stress Levels of the Wearer. I'd try this myself if I had an immediate application.

Some years ago, I posted this idea as a Medical Monitor with an Emotional Stress And/or Pain Indicator - maybe now the time is right for this concept to catch on. https://tgideas.blogspot.com/.../medical-monitor-with... and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-r96IjiC6xg
 
If you try this out, let us know how it works for you and the healthcare staff. Let me know if I can help in any way. There's usually a work-around for most situations.

Covid-19 Vaccines: The Ultimate 2021 Guide to Every Vaccine

A reader suggested I post this and I think it is a great idea.  Check it out if interested.  

"Covid-19 vaccines have taken center stage in recent months. Mass vaccination programs are underway, and billions of people are now pinning their hopes for the future on the success of a global rollout.

In many ways, the world we live in now is very different to just last year.

Vaccination offers the best chance of a return to normal life, and a huge responsibility falls upon the shoulders of vaccine manufacturers. With this added pressure comes publicity, and scrutiny. Pharmaceutical companies are now household names, and data from coronavirus vaccine trials is publicly published, analyzed, and critiqued by health experts and journalists alike.

In stark contrast, an endless supply of fake news and rumors, fueled by a fear of the unknown, has diluted public belief in vaccination programs. This complete guide aims to cut through this fog of misinformation and provide you with all of the available facts on Covid-19 vaccines.

In this extensive guide, you’ll learn everything about Covid-19 vaccines – from high-profile vaccine candidates, to the wider issues and talking points surrounding immunization campaigns..."
