Good News of the Day:
These days, it’s not uncommon to skype a friend overseas, or videochat with family over the holidays. But how about using videoconferencing to provide health care to rural villages? That’s what E Health Point Services is up to. By opening clinics up in rural India, the program allows patients to video chat with a doctor, and then run necessary tests and get the appropriate medicine from the clinic’s pharmacy. They also gives out clean drinking water to help reduce sickness. http://www.dailygood.org/more.php?n=4384
