Only the laser AIDS. Which is 149% as effective as regular AIDS...Aylaine said:
And it's got lasers!
Realistically, unless whatever you're being injected with - or the area that's going to be touching the hole are contaminated with the virus, you're probably pretty safe. Which may or may not give you green light on doing hard drugs with this thing with a horde of hobos. Hahah.
More seriously, if it doesn't cause any bleeding, it's not likely that someone who has HIV/AIDS would be able to contaminate the thing through proper use, in my opinion. Of course, given that it's internet and I have no medical education might be an interesting tidbit to think about.

It does seem illogical to have a fear of needles, but logic doesn't seem to have anything to with it. I always start sweating just seeing them on tv sometimes. A future with no needles seems like a damn good idea to me.
I agree. I have an exam next Thursday relating to this and needle-free alternatives have always failed in some way.Icecoldcynic said:
Using multi-modal reflectal showing, I can say with all honesty that this is awesome and that world sucks a little less because of this.
Am I the only one thinking how easy it will be to drug someone now? Put a sedative inside and press to skin.
Probably am... Next thing I know the FBI will beam me into a holding cell.

I used to give myself allergy shots. I was fine for over a year, then, all of the sudden, I couldn't bring myself to stick myself with the needle. I don't know what changed or why, I just couldn't do it.
I approve of this technology.

As am I, I also dont think I it will be very useful for high doeses. The use of lasers is an interesting idea, the only ones ive seen up to this point propel the intection through the skin by blasting it at high speeds...Icecoldcynic said:
Try injecting yourself several times a day, its a pain in the ass, damages tissue and leaves lovly little injection marks. Not to mention the funny looks you get when you produce a needle in public.Flamezdudes said:
Actually, all the old sci-fi based much of their tech stuff off of todays science. Just don't ask how or we have to kill you....Furburt said:
OT: It's called a jet-intector, was patented in 1960. This isn't that new in concept, next please. Ok, the addition of lasers is neat, until the melanoma cases come rolling in (whaddya mean I sound cranky? I always sound cranky...)
Yes P.L.E.A.S.E.
More P.L.E.A.S.E.
P.L.E.A.S.E. and thank you.
This definitely seems like an awesome thing for pediatric use, or diabetics' insulin if nothing else

They subscribe to the idea I like to call "retarded acronyms".ultimateownage said:
I think it's;
Painless Laser Epidermal System
This isn't a very clever acronym (it's pretty damn awkward, actually), since I'm pretty sure that if multiple letters are used they all need to be the first letters. Like COCOMO (COnstructive COst MOdel).
I don't think it's possible for a laser to cause melanoma; at least not any laser that they would likely use in the system. Then again I'm not a medical student and I could be wrong about that.Captain Blackout said:
I hope to god this comes to the states from Europe. I absolutely hate needles, and this looks incredibly impressive.
so in order to avoid the pain of a needle, it shoots a thousand holes into your skin with LASERS!?
