psyche29We've been slowly binging Star Trek. We've actually been through TNG a couple times at least, recently finished DS9, and have made it into Season 2, I believe, of Voyager.
As part of this binging, I see all the medical bits and pieces, and it makes me think that technology right now is absolutely amazing when it comes to medical things, that's for damn sure. But I am still waiting for them to make - or maybe to perfect - Star Trek-style vaccines.
Do you have any idea how LIVID I am going to be if I have this damn surgery, and whatever additional treatments are necessary, and then they announce, "Hey, guess what, we now have no-needle vaccines and medication-delivery!" Absolutely my luck, the way this year has been going. *shakes head*
