(Reuters) - Novartis AG plans to seek regulatory approval within 18 months for a pioneering tablet containing an embedded microchip, bringing the concept of "smart-pill" technology a step closer.The initial program will use one of the Swiss firm's established drugs taken by transplant patients to avoid organ rejection. But Trevor Mundel, global head of development, believes the concept can be applied to many other pills.
"We are taking forward this transplant drug with a chip and we hope within the next 18 months to have something that we will be able to submit to the regulators, at least in Europe," Mundel told the Reuters Health Summit in New York.
"I see the promise as going much beyond that," he added.
Novartis agreed in January to spend $24 million to secure access to chip-in-a-pill technology developed by privately owned Proteus Biomedical of Redwood City, California, putting it ahead of rivals.

Drug-resistant Super-Bug Found in Three States - Worthy News

http://www.worthynews.com/top/cbn-com-cbnnews-healthscience-2010-September-Drug-resistant-Super-Bug-Found-in-Three-States--

A new gene that makes a certain bacteria resistant to almost all antibiotics has U.S. scientists and doctors alarmed.
So far, this new super-bug has caused people to become sick in three states in the U.S as well as Canada. The bug is also starting to pop up all over the world.
The gene has mostly been found in a bacteria that causes urinary infections.
All of the known cases seem to have been contracted by people traveling to India for medical procedures.
Medical experts are worried that people will continue to spread the bacteria via airplane all over the world.
Scientists have feared a super-bug like this one. Resistance to antibiotics is on the rise, and there aren't currently many new vaccines being developed.
Doctors warn that good hygiene is important because the bacteria can spread hand-to-mouth.
The amount of deaths caused by this new super-bug is unknown.

    Big Brother to track your medication compliance with electronic transmitters in pills




  • read more on www.naturalnews.com
    (NaturalNews) Now that the U.S. government has achieved its monopoly over health care, new technologies are in the works that will allow the government to remotely monitor and track whether ordinary citizens are complying with taking medications prescribed by conventional doctors. One new technology described at the U.S. Senate Committee on Aging allows "pills to be electronically outfitted with transmitters" which would track the patient's compliance with medications and broadcast that information back to government health care enforcers who check for "compliance and efficacy."

    "Emerging technologies allow pills to be electronically outfitted with transmitters to communicate with the user's wristwatch that shows that the pill has been consumed,"

    Parents who currently attempt to protect their children from toxic medical therapies such as chemotherapy could be closely monitored by government medical enforcement agents. If you try to flush dangerous pharmaceuticals down the toilet instead of actually taking them, the lack of an electronic tracking signal will let your health care observers know you didn't really take the pills.

    Did you get your happy chemicals today?

    At the click of a mouse, in other words, Big Government could mass medicate the entire nation. Imagine the entire population being dosed with "happy chemicals" in the days before an important vote. Or imagine the population being medicated with "anger hormones" following some staged false-flag attack, all designed to create outrage so that the politicians can sweep in with yet more "solutions" that destroy civil liberties.

    If potential benefits of molecular nanotechnology (MNT) sound too good to be true, there is one caveat — the potential dangers of molecular nanotechnology. When nanofactories can arrange atoms into structures — playing with the building blocks of life itself, or in this case nanoblocks -- theoretically anything allowable by the laws of physics can be created fast and cheap. Requirements include a few square feet for the nanofactory, the software, and an electrical outlet.

    These findings have important implications for garnering support of the new technology, say the researchers.
    The experiment involved a diverse sample of 1,500 Americans, the vast majority of whom were unfamiliar with nanotechnology, a relatively new science that involves the manipulation of particles the size of atoms and that has numerous commercial applications. When shown balanced information about the risks and benefits of nanotechnology, study participants became highly divided on its safety compared to a group not shown such information.

    I don't have the room to put it all up here but, hopefully you get a better sense of how your body actually works now.
    As you notice it's not all in your genes. It's all works through what you believe. Causing a negative or positive effect in your system. Adding anything into your body that your body cannot control itself. Is a very dangerous way to play with your own God given cells.
    As you go through how the new Nanotech actually works. This is giving somebody other than you the ability to control what your body does.

Mysterious plague outbreak among Syrian army

    Mysterious plague outbreak among Syrian army
    by Tina Redlup on July 6, 2010


    Y. pestis
    An outbreak of plague, which is considerd a potential bioweapon, among the Syrian military may be raising more questions than answers.
    Syrian President Bashar al-Assad recently ordered the shutdown of all Syrian military exercises due to a plague that currently affects a large number of military personnel, according to Examiner.com.
    The Syrian president has told Syrian news sources that food and drinking water in military bases, coupled with one of the country's worst droughts in over 40 years, are responsible for the outbreak of plague.
    Hundreds of thousands of Syrians are experiencing food shortages, nearly 60,000 small livestock owners have lost all their animals and 50,000 others have lost 50 to 60 percent of their cattle.
    The infectious bacterium Yersinia pestis causes the infectious disease plague, which is commonly found worldwide in rats and other rodents. Fleas often serve as common vectors of plague. There are three forms of human plague - bubonic, septicemic and pneumonic.
    Humans may also be infected by direct contact with an infected animal, through inhalation and, if it is pneumonic plague, by person to person contact.
    Drinking water, food and a heat wave are not common causes of plague, Examiner.com says, unless they have increased the contact between humans and plague carriers.

NO, YOU CAN'T KEEP YOUR HEALTH PLAN

Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services logoImage via Wikipedia

clipped from www.ncpa.org

President Obama guaranteed Americans that after health reform became law they could keep their insurance plans and their doctors.  It's clear that this promise cannot be kept.  Insurers and physicians are already reshaping their businesses as a result of Obama's plan, says Dr. Scott Gottlieb, a former official at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, a fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and a practicing internist. 

The health reform law caps how much insurers can spend on expenses and take for profits, explains Gottlieb: 


  • Starting next year, health plans will have a regulated "floor" on their medical-loss ratios, which is the amount of revenue they spend on medical claims.

  • The spending cap is 15 percent for policies sold to large employers. 
  • They also have higher medical costs, owing partly to selection by less healthy consumers

    Storage of newborns’ blood samples raises privacy concerns


    It’s a routine test conducted on newborns – a quick needle prick to the heel to test for a range of health disorders and diseases before an infant is discharged.


    But the newborn screening procedures, which exist across North America and most of the developed world, have run afoul of privacy advocates because the genetic material collected from infants when blood is drawn is routinely used for other purposes, chiefly medical research.


    Millions of infants’ blood samples – along with their names and birthdates – are stored on information cards in laboratories across Canada. What has riled civil libertarians and privacy advocates is that parents aren’t told that their babies’ genetic blueprint will be stored indefinitely, and perhaps used for research purposes.


    Instead, parents are told the blood samples are crucial to test for disorders such as hypothyroidism, and more recently, cystic fibrosis.


    British Columbia stores the genetic information of about 800,000 infants.

    Russia Reports Over 2 Million Dead In US As Mysterious Die-Off Accelerates

    clipped from www.eutimes.net

    A most chilling report circulating in the Kremlin today prepared by the Russian Academy of Medical and Technical Science for Prime Minister Putin states that a “mysterious die-off” in the United States has claimed over 2,000,000 lives since 2008 and is “more than likely” linked to a “crossover” plant disease linked to genetically modified grains and foods.

    Supporting Russian scientists in these conclusions is new research being conducted by the Didier Raoult of the University of the Mediterranean in Marseilles, France, where for the first time in human history a plant virus has been found to cause problems in people.

    Russian scientists further claim in these reports that the United States mass vaccination of their population this past year for the supposed H1N1 Swine Flu epidemic was instead a “very clumsy attempt” to stop the spreading of this mysterious lung disease by injecting into these peoples a DNA “fix” to this genetically modified corn

    Medical Schools Can't Keep Up

    clipped from online.wsj.com
    [RESIDENCY]
    The new federal health-care law has raised the stakes for hospitals and schools already scrambling to train more doctors.

    Experts warn there won't be enough doctors to treat the millions of people newly insured under the law. At current graduation and training rates, the nation could face a shortage of as many as 150,000 doctors in the next 15 years, according to the Association of American Medical Colleges.

    A shortage of primary-care and other physicians could mean more-limited access to health care and longer wait times for patients.

    Doctors' groups and medical schools had hoped that the new health-care law, passed in March, would increase the number of funded residency slots, but such a provision didn't make it into the final bill.

    Studies link H1N1 to seasonal flu shots

    clipped from www.ctvbc.ctv.ca
    Slideshow image

    Controversial flu vaccine study finally published, but questions raised linger

    A set of controversial studies that suggested getting a previous seasonal flu shot doubled a person's risk of catching pandemic H1N1 last spring has finally been published -- though the mystery of whether the finding is real remains.

    But outside of Canada, where the effect wasn't seen, scientists scratched their heads and dismissed the inexplicable and troubling findings as "the Canadian problem."

    But the fact remains research elsewhere so far doesn't corroborate these findings and there isn't an easy way to explain why getting vaccinated against seasonal flu would make a person more susceptible to catching the new flu virus.

    "The question is: OK, is it real? And the answer is: It's not clear."

    Dr. Danuta Skowronski of the British Columbia Centre for Disease Control said for her, the story of this research was one of "finding results that you don't like and that others like even less."
