 Last Friday, I was in a meeting with IT people from the Department of Health. One had the latest gadget, a Palm Tungsten PDA, and was explaining the interest they had in developing applications using that platform. This morning, I learned of HHS' plans to deploy a bioterrorism alert system, transmitting messages to palms used by doctors, administrators and other health care professionals. This system will augment the CDC's Health Alert Network.
Yesterday, in a meeting of InterOp Utah, we discussed the interest of the public health community in the State's wireless WAN project that will provide access throughout the state. Not only are they very interested, but they have funding available to support the wireless interoperability strategy.
By the way, CDC's EOC was activated following the outbreak of SARS two weeks ago.
