- Already, It Looks As if Micro-chipping of US Citizens
Will Soon Be Mandatory.
-
- US federal legislation seems to be written by illiterates,
or by foreigners, none of whom seem to understand English very well, which
the Controllers prefer as that gives them more latitude with interruption
and enforcement: Obama's health care bill is a case in point.
-
- Congressman John Conyers (D-Michigan), Chairman of the
House Judiciary Committee, even questioned the sense of reading Obama's
1,990 page health care bill by saying, "I love these members, they
get up and say, 'Read the bill.' What good is reading the bill if it's
a thousand pages and you don't have two days and two lawyers to find out
what it means after you read the bill."
-
- Sorry to have to expose you to a portion of that very
poorly written, 1990 page health care bill (Subtitle C-11 Sec. 2521 National
Medical Device Registry), but maybe you can tell me what it means.
-
- "... the Secretary shall establish a national medical
device registry (in this Subsection referred to as the Registry) to facilitate
analysis of postmarket safety and outcomes data on each device that - (A)
is that has been used in or on a patient; and (B) is a Class III device;
or (ii) A Class II device that is Implantable..."
-
- Well, enough of that, a person can take only so much
nonsense at one sitting. But, ask yourself a simple question: Are we to
be multi-chipped, complete with updates, like a computer program, with
our yearly rounds of multi-inoculations?

- Perhaps I can shed some light on the following statement
you have quoted:
-
- "... the Secretary shall establish a national medical
device registry (in this Subsection referred to as the Registry) to facilitate
analysis of postmarket safety and outcomes data on each device that - (A)
is that has been used in or on a patient; and (B) is a Class III device;
or (ii) A Class II device that is Implantable..."

- Medical devices today are already approved for use on
or in patients, and the Class of device is based on the level
of invasiveness. A medical device is ANYTHING used on or in a
patient, or comes into contact with them. Lasers and various diagnostics
instruments like CT scanners, MRI and optometry equipment must all be certified
and approved. Although they do not directly physically contact the
patient, they use lasers, magnetic fields and X-Rays which can be harmful
at the wrong wavelengths or power levels.
-
- Outside of diagnostic equipment, devices used outside
the body have the lowest class rating such as bandages. A scalpel
is a typical device with a higher and stricter classification. In the highest
(and toughest certification/classification level) are devices surgically implanted
such as metal pins, plates for broken bones, replacement joints, pumps,
stomach bands to lose weight, pacemakers, etc...
-
- Outside of the medical effectiveness of any patient device, regulations include
VERY strict standards regarding voltages and currents that sensing instruments
may apply to a patient, internally or externally. For example, with
any instrument there is a very small voltage and current present on
the electrodes. This originates from internal circuitry and is an integral
part of how solid-state circuitry functions. Of great importance in the
FDA regulations are voltages present on electrodes with respect to Earth
ground. When test instruments are used to certify a piece of medical
equipment is safe, no voltages are allowed between any electrode and ground.
For this reason, medical instruments (including those I have designed)
such as heart monitors and EEG systems have isolation amplifiers for each
sensing wire that connects to a patient or test subject.
-
- There are considerations with regard to biochemical reactions
with implanted medical products, too. Internally, the body has a similar
same salt/water ratio like Earth's oceans. Saline water reacts
with various metals and numerous plastic compounds. Some reactions are
immediate and others take place over time. No harmful byproducts to the
body can be released by any plastic or metal compounds used in implants.
Therefore, only certain plastics and metals are suitable for implant manufacturing.
-
- A number of non-prescription medical devices are
on the consumer market which are currently under the FDA radar. Some
of these devices were sold to relieve pain that use electrical pulses,
and others are relatively harmless such as hearing aids. Improperly
(and ignorantly) used by someone with a pacemaker, an over-the-counter device
generating electrical pulses to relieve pain could cause a serious pacemaker
malfunction resulting in a life-threatening situation. Interfering
with a defibrillating pacemaker is even more serious - it could
translate the pulses from a pain device incorrectly and falsely determine the
heart is going into fibrillation, causing the pacemaker
to attempt to defibrillate the heart. Such an action could STOP the
heart, killing the patient. Under no conditions should anyone EVER use
an electrical stimulation device to relieve pain who has any pacemaker
or implant. They should see their doctor first.
-
- Medical devices are one of the few areas which must have
government regulation. We've all heard about coffeemakers catching fire
and being recalled. So what do you if your implant is recalled?
Consider how thousands of women were shocked to learn their original breast
implants were filled with toxic silicone oil and had to be replaced under
major surgery. This was one of several landmark events that shocked
the medical and regulatory agencies into a reality check regarding medical
products and the approval process. While I certainly do not approve of
chipping people, I think any device that contacts or connects to the body
needs to be regulated in a reasonable way to protect people.
