I’d be lying if I said I was scared of needles. After many years of trips to the doctor’s office, a needle is simply just another medical procedure. What I can say I’m scared of is the Bloodbot.
The Bloodbot is a surgical robot that has been designed to automatically take blood samples from you when required. The Bloodbot finds a vein and goes in for the job (by the way, its accuracy is 78%).
I understand the surgical importance and convenience of the Bloodbot, but I can’t help but worry I may have to use that one day.
