I always the mark of the beast and microchipping was well , politely said, not really correct. but read the article from todays Telegraph, looks like another trend is setting in. maybe a small step to implants, what in Gods name are they up to now????
The barcodes, which will be read by handheld scanners, are to be issued to patients from October neaxt year under the orders of the Information Standards Board (ISB) for Health and Social Care.
By next April trusts have must plans on how they will implement the change-over.
The ISB is imposing the rule to cut down on the number of avoidable errors like patients being given the wrong medication.
Studies show they can stop such administrative errors by 42 per cent, according to Franck Riout of Zebra Technologies, which makes barcoding systems for NHS trusts.
Peter Walsh, chief executive of the campaign group Action Against Medical Accidents, said: "It's a good move. Patient misidentification is a recurring problem and there is a need for more consistency with wristbands across the NHS.
"Having the same procedures in every NHS hospital will prevent a number of avoidable incidents from causing harm and even worse."
The Patients Association also welcomed them - although the pressure group was a little concerned patients could end up feeling like products rather than people.
Katherine Murphy, its chief executive, said: "Looking for new and innovative ways to improve patient safety should be a top priority for all healthcare providers.
"The introduction of these barcoded wristbands could improve patient safety by making sure that mistakes do not happen.
"However, care must be taken to ensure they do not become a barrier to communication with patients.
"We do not want to end up in a situation where patients are scanned like an item in a supermarket.
"Healthcare professionals using these barcoded wristbands should make sure that they make every effort to talk to the patient and treat them with the respect that all people deserve.”
The project, originally proposed by the Department of Health and the National Patient Safety Authority in 2007, has been put back several times. The original deadline set by the ISB was July 2011.

the queen the royal ma'm in Buckingham palace has about four Maybe six palaces but her wealth is massive yet they are cutting back on lighting to save energy! honestly..... an important lesson for the masses perhaps... I am constitutionalist not a damned monarchist, we should have a president here and Constitution like you folk over there, ... that is what I have learned listening to Alex Jones at least. even so, nothing is sacred.
as far as these barcodes go, it does seem as though the doomsayers are correct. it s beginning to look that way I have always been highly skeptical of what Alex says on this and Rense and David icke. however it seems there s more than a modicum of truth in it. a lot more. somehow they have tk make them socially acceptable, make them as innocuous as they can until they are so commonplace any step up such as identity chips let alone embedded chips will pass without anyone noticing. like th sheep being slowly herded no the sheep fold.
it is a slow creeping evil nothing more. all we need ask is why now, why no thirty forty fifty years back, why now? it has to be taken along with all the rest , like the security cameras. I am going t see my father on Wednesday, I live here on the island of Anglesey just off the mainland, we are almost protected from this security state here, in the country, but once you get off the motorways into the big towns like Stockport, Manchester, etc. the cameras appear. as soon as you enter a town it seems there is a camera watching you, I noticed this a few months go, I had not been there for a long time again but no one notices it seems, them it is almost frightening.
They are pushing for biometric control for food stamp reciepients here, next the chipTHE MARK OF THE BEAST. CONGRESS IS ALSO TRYING TO CUT FOOD STAMPS. The queen has 100 palaces with 100's of rooms old people ride the buses to keep warm.
