Dear All, Having worked for several years in Africa with HIV/AIDS, I regard this as a very useful contribution. The tremendously powerful infrastructure of Care2x should be able to accommodate any such anonymous testing (VCT for those who are busy in the field ;-) ). Another feature that we may wish to consider is the integration of patient (and medical professionals) educational material, as well as travel medicine advice. Would we not ALL love to have standard information on common colds, viral gastroenteritis, etc. at our fingertips that we can easily issue to the wary mother of a sick child? Also, this knowledge base feature would be of terrific value for HIV/AIDS workers, patients, and counsellors alike! Regarding the latter, I have been working on a simple yet powerful system based - essentially - on htdig and/or swish-e, but I have not yet though about integration into Care2x... Thanks again, Susheel, any thoughts anybody? Chris
