Microchips for dogs, but people too? Ok I must know, I know many people have their pets microchips but what do you think about the new chip they are going to put in people's hands? |
"Futurama" predicted this in 1999... :( I think this was considered "false" in...2003? but I have no doubt it'll happen at some point in the near future. |
I don't like microchips in anything living its a foreign object which the body is known to reject and should not be in the body. I have heard a few stories of them causing cancer. |
A lot of people have lived with foreign objects in them from shrapnel, bullets,permanent sutures, surgical mesh to repair of old war wounds or other body defects, to fixation/anchoring devices for fracture fixation, ACL and other surgical repairs/reconstruction, methyl methacrylate used for bone defects and a myriad of other surgical uses, allografts for tendon/bony type reconstructions, all kinds of implants from soft, pliable facial implants for severe injury, disease or reconstruction, kids with ear tubes for drainage, lens implants after cataract surgery, dental implants, joints implants such as hips, shoulders or knees, etc., without any increased risk of cancer over the next guy, except some of the earlier silicone breast implants. If it would help to locate lost children and missing people with certainty,present the scanner with medical allergies and medications list, medicalhistory and the devices didn't seem to cause any medical problems themselves, Iwould probably be for having one myself. |
Personally I will never get microchipped. They can throw me in prison, whatever, not happening lol. |
Microchips were first introduced for human use. The practicality wasn't there for typical civilian use. So, they reinvented it's use for animals and have gravitated toward the elderly. To "help find your loved one suffering from alzheimers". It will mandatory for humans one day. Maybe a few more generations when people are completely naieve to the real agenda. |

This! It's true. Maybe not our life but maybe our childrens' or grandchildrens'... I fear for the future. |
We had our dog done hen he was neutered 2 weeks ago. I didn't like the thought but like the thought of it could help he ever gets lost or something. I don't think these things are going to hurt human or animal really, my pup doesn't seem to have an issue. Heck I have titanium mesh and screws in my head and I'm fine. :) Not sure exactly what my thought are though on microchipping ourselves someday. |

I'm sure anything placed in our bodies can be harmful, not saying they never would be but I just know myself that having mesh and screws in my head helped save my life had to be done, could it cause some kind of harm to me down the road I doubt it but always possible all I know is it was something I had to have done and I am alive. Like I said I'm still out on the whole microchip in us. I don't like it but what can we do really? |

Apparently the chips are not harmful to most animals and they have been used for various reasons in humans for a while now. I have read where some high level security agencies of the government use them in order for employees to gain access to certain secured areas. I certainly hope we are never required as citizens to use them but it seems to be moving in that direction. |
My mother died of Alzheimer's 3 months ago. She wandered onto the Turnpike and was struck by a car, died on impact. I wish we had the opportunity to place a micro-chip on her, we could have found her sooner and saved her life. She had a medic-alert bracelet but she would take it off all the time... |
