This specific article pertains to a health issue regarding a cellular phone. The specific stakeholders here are Verizon and this man whom allegedly had his phone blow up while using it, injuring his ear. He has suffered no hearing problems, but Verizon will be held at a legal case against this, or so the man, named Embry, says. This relates to health considerations, because the main problem here is that a man got injured and this was not good. This telephone was an Android Verizon Phone, one of the latest phones out. The cause to this problem is unknown, but Verizon will definitely have a lawsuit against them, since this was a threat to safety, and looking at the photo, you can tell that this mans ear was injured. This could also be fraud, a way for a man to make money off of a company by faking an injury. The battery to the phone remains unaffected, which begs the question of what possibly could have set the explosion to this screen, if anything? It isn't something we can know at the moment, but the investigation will definitely give answers. Is any user of a cell phone safe if the top notch cell phone that just came out exploded? This could be a danger to many people, not only just Embry, who might have been lucky to survive the encounter.

According to Alexander Vo, an associate professor in preventive medicine and community health, telemedicine is a helpful measure to be taken in order to help patients from a remote location. However, he says that problems have arose when telemedicine was used in relation to diaster relief. One example given is the earthquake in Haiti, when many technologies were donated by companies in order to promote the use of telemedicine for immediate disaster relief. Vo says that this technology was not used, especially within the first few weeks, because the locations were staffed with enough doctors. Further, even if the technology could be used, the doctors were not trained to use it, and there was no time to train them at that moment.Only after the voluntary doctors went back to their home towns could they be of any use in regard to telemedicine. The patients in need of special care could then connect with the doctors in the remote areas, however, there could be problems if the internet was down, or if the necessary hardware was destroyed due to the diaster. Even though the egagement in telemedicine was not the best for Haiti, it was seen to be of great help for a hurricane in Texas recently. Vo explains that telemedicine was successful because it was already established within the communities. The technology was available throughout the affected areas, and could be put to use immediately. The use of cell phones was also crucial, because many of the patients had pre-established access to doctors who could help diagnose and alleviate the problems of the patients in affected areas. Because the protocols were established prior to the disasters, the care was planed out to be available to the most amount of patients. Plans in advance can also taken into account the problem of damaged internet service, cables, and networks, and determine what the best plan of action is given the situation. Thus, the relief would allow the affected area to be back on track quickly, and efficientl

health issues from cell phone usage

Airlines and EU officials said the security risk will be minimized because the system will not connect inflight phones directly to the ground - instead using an onboard base station to link up to a satellite and then to ground networks. "It has to go through a central onboard cellular network that can be switched off by the captain at any moment, so that enhances the security of the passengers," said EU spokesman Martin Selmayr. He added that for safety and security concerns the phone services will not be available during takeoff, landing or during turbulence.

"Obama Signs Executive Order Limiting Text Messaging for On-The-Job Government Employees Monday, November 23rd, 2009 On September 30, 2009, the Obama administration ordered a ban on texting for all government employees while driving on the job or driving government-owned vehicles. Studies show that talking on a cell phone causes almost 25% of all car accidents. Already, seven states have banned any cellphone use while driving, 18 states have banned texting while driving, and 17 states have made it illegal for school bus drivers to use cellphones while driving. This is all great news for U.S. drivers since last year distracted drivers caused nearly 6,000 deaths in this country alone. The administration is considering additional restrictions on cellphone use by rail, truck and bus drivers."
