Imagine when this becomes common practice,

  • you're sitting at home and suddenly your phone sends you a notification,

  • it's a text message from your local hospital,

  • you check the text message and it says "This is an automated message from the Hospital's Supercomputer: According to our predictions you are going to suffer from a brain bleed on January 23rd between 3:00pm and 5:00pm."

  • It is currently January 23rd 2:54pm

Ambulances are way more expensive than that. In NJ if a BLS ambulance takes you it’s around 1500. If the paramedics show up and apply 4 stickers read your ekg and get your VS it’s 10k. Here is the kicker. The paramedics can triage the patient back to the basic emts because they weren’t needed and there was no life threat.

Volunteers are the worst culprit of having the paramedics come “check them out” basically because they are inept.

In the US "an ambulance is on the way and we've calculated the trip to your location to cost $800. Text Stop to cancel your ambulance"

Plus then you'd be slapped with the ambulance cancelation fee. 799 bucks.

Imagine the ambulance just shows up at your house unannounced. You open the door and the guy is standing there counting down. He hits one and you drop to the floor.

"Ah, right on time"

"Kevin. You're supposed to hold onto them before they fall. Look, now there's blood everywhere. I'm not cleaning that up."

Hopefully we don't all have regular intercranial pressure monitoring. I try to keep the holes in my head limited to those my mama gave me.

Maybe in the future we'll have some sort of health monitoring tht you can get, if I had to get some sort of device that monitors my health data, but it makes sure to let me know if I need to seek medical attention, then sign me up.

Unfortunately we cannot send paramedics right now because we had to let go most of them in the 2023 depression. If you’re close to a surgeon, people get in touch with them. Otherwise, call your closest family to say good bye. Have a nice day.

or a text that predicts that after you ate a bunch of spicy food, you are going to have a long night on the toilet. Stockpile toilet paper.
