A British scientist has become the first human to be infected with a computer virus.

Dr Mark Gasson, a cybernetics expert at the University of Reading, has had a computer chip implanted in his hand.

The chip is programmed to open security doors to his lab - and ensure only he is able to switch on and use his mobile phone.

But Dr Gasson deliberately infected the chip with a computer virus, which was then automatically transmitted to affect to the lab security system.

"Once the system is infected, anybody accessing the building with their passcard would be infected too," he told Sky News.

The virus on his chip is benign. But malicious computer code could give criminals access to a building.

Dr Gasson says his experiment also exposes the vulnerability of chips now routinely implanted in patients.

Heart pacemakers contain mini-computers that control the heartbeat, and communicate with doctors via a special reader held against the skin.

But if a virus was transmitted to the device which stopped it working properly, the consequences for the patient could be fatal.

"The devices will have to start to use security encryption," said Dr Gasson.

"Medical devices should have some kind of password protection as well. They're basic security precautions. It's surprising these devices don't have them already."

I personally don't see why they would want to spend much effort on ''security'' for these RFID chips. The real purpose for the chips has nothing to do with security in buildings and such. The chips are intended for the slave market that is left after depopulation...in the absence of green backs.

Again...yes...again...the Bible talks about the RFID chips......''And he causeth all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free and the bond, that there be given them a mark on their right hand, or upon their forehead;and that no man should be able to buy or to sell, save he that hath the mark, even the name of the beast or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. He that hath understanding, let him count the number of the beast; for it is the number of a man: and his number is Six hundred and sixty and six.''

It has been determined that three sets of six digits can ''triangulate'' everyone on the planet. Could that ''man'' be William? We shall see...won't we.

I would be much more impressed if the Bible talked about RFID chips specifically (by name, manufacturer, type, etc.), rather than using ambiguous terms like "marks", which could be interpreted a thousand different ways. Surely the all-powerful Elohim could have used future language that could not be translated but would be perfectly well understood when time caught up with the story. But then again, they could have chosen to included a DVD with the book.

Cheapskates.

Mr. Chico...I BELIEVE WE WILL SOON ENOUGH FIND OUT ABOUT WHAT ''MARKS'' THE BIBLE REFERRED TO.
The proof is in the pudding. In this case, the ''pudding'' isn't done...so you have to be patient.

Even if the Elohim produced DVD'S we would dismiss them somehow, as that is what we seem to do too often with TRUTH.

You know, in a way, I am the ''other Chico'' that is trying to consider what Chico can't in the search for TRUTH.
If we both agreed on everything, we would hardly be compelled to determine TRUTH.
