I think Japan used to be the country with the most public telephones in the world.
For a long time, even though mobile phones became popular, public phones were everywhere.
On the other hand, in Hong Kong, fixed-type telephones were not so popular, so mobile phones became popular all at once.
In Japan, the use of mobile phones may have been delayed by the elderly living in houses because of the installed hometelephones.
The national questionnaire survey was also conducted by home phone, so only the intentions of the elderly appeared in the numbers.
It is said that it was difficult to reflect on the opinions of young people exchanging information on mobile phones.
This time, medical apps are making inroads from Asia.
No other country has as many clinics and hospitals as Japan.
On the other hand, a country will emerge in which medical care, home-visit nursing, home medical care, and prescription delivery can all be done through mobile phone apps.
You can also use an automatic translator online.
In the medical field, there is a service that has X-ray images read in India and the results sent over the Internet.
The time will soon come when medical consultations will be done through internet apps, doctors all over the world, and AI health consultation apps, without going to a Japanese clinic.
It will start not from advanced Japan, but from Southeast Asia, where the medical system is immature.
Instead of catching up with Japan, Japan will be overtaken at once.
Just like Hong Kong overtook mobile phone use.
Home medical care and visiting nursing will also become easier to access, just like using a taxi app.
Medicines will also be delivered without having to go to a dispensing pharmacy.
It will be as easy to use as a pizza delivery or a taxi.
It should be a good thing, but as an old medical person, I’m somewhat uneasy.
I am also an old man who has become a vested interest.
