BIG PHARMA TO BEGIN MICROCHIPPING DRUGS

The
age of pharmaceutical micro-chipping is now upon us. Novartis AG, one
of the largest drug companies in the world, has announced a plan to
begin embedding microchips in medications to create “smart pill” technology.
The microchip technology is being licensed from Proteus Biomedical of Redwood City,
California. Once activated by stomach acid, the embedded microchip
begins sensing its environment and broadcasting data to a receiver worn
by the patient. This receiver is also a transmitter that can send the
data over the internet to a doctor.
The idea behind all this is to create “smart pills” that can sense
what’s happening in the body and deliver that information to the
patient’s doctor. Novartis plans to start micro-chipping its organ transplant
anti-rejection drugs and then potentially expand microchipping to other
pharmaceuticals in its product lineup. This same technology could soon
end up in pills made by other.
The best laid plans…
It all sounds good on the surface, but readers no doubt have lots of skeptical questions
about this technology. For starters, Novartis apparently isn’t planning
on conducting any clinical trials that might take into account the
safety issues of swallowing microchips. “Novartis does not expect to
have to conduct full-scale clinical trials to prove the new products
work,” reports Reuters. “Instead, it aims to do so-called bioequivalence
tests to show they are the same as the original.”(http://www.reuters.com/article/idUS…)
But
I have a question: What chemicals or heavy metals are contained in the
microchip itself? A microchip that transmits data obviously must have a
power source, meaning it needs to have a very small battery or capacitor of some sort.
The materials used in capacitors and batteries, to my knowledge, are toxic to the human body and should never be eaten.
Microchips are not food, and to swallow them seems risky to your health, especially if you’re swallowing several microchips per day.
Data privacy
Another huge concern with microchips that transmit data is data privacy.
If these microchips are broadcasting information, then obviously that
information can be picked up by anything nearby, including potentially
unscrupulous individuals or organizations who might put it to a
nefarious use.
For example, suppose a local pharmacy store
installs a microchip signal detector in their main door entrance in
order to track people who are broadcasting medication data. They could
then theoretically decode that data and use it to determine what health
condition that customer might be suffering and then push competing
generic pharmaceuticals as a replacement.
Government agents could carry “pharma microchip scanners” that
determine what pills you’re taking right now. This could be used to
violate your privacy by sharing that data with other government agencies
or it could even be sold off to third-party marketing companies.
I very much doubt the data being broadcast by the microchips in these pills will be encryptedbecause
encryption requires real processing power, and there isn’t room for
much of a CPU or power source inside these tiny microchips. Most likely,
they are going to broadcast raw signal data that can be detected and decoded quite easily.
