Corona reports are sent by fax, and the Federal Council must take drastic measures while flying blind. The public’s fear of data theft is also to blame for the grievance. — — In many medical practices, medical histories are still stored exclusively on paper. Christoph Ruckstuhl / NZZ — Imagine if you could conveniently register for a corona test via a nationally standardized portal if you had a sore throat. A few hours after the swab, your health app sends a push message with the result – and the national authorities receive the data on the virus spread in real time. If you have to go to hospital because of a severe course of Covid-19, the attending physicians can immediately see in the virtual patient dossier which risk factors you have and which medication you are taking. You will receive the invitation to the flu vaccination electronically as soon as it is your turn according to the priority list. And imagine if you could prove the vaccination at any time with the vaccination certificate, which is integrated in the health app. – Related posts:Chloe Zhao, awarded the Golden Globe, caused discontent in Chinaseveral clubs follow Jean-Charles CastellettoUS Soldier Makes Daring Escape into North Korea During DMZ TourFacing Carolina, Boston returns to the front The Aertec company created a special mask for singers Needed, about 100,000 oxygen tanks: NGO Leave a Comment Cancel replyCommentName Email Website Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
