I came across this article on the BBC website about using Wi-Fi and RFID to track people. The manufacturers of the technology say that it’s a great way to track assets or people within a controlled location, say a campus or a building, like say a hospital.

A hospital? Yes, apparently they recommend the use of this tracking technology in hospitals, a place where you are requested to turn your mobile phone off as soon as you walk in the door.

So while the government takes another look at the impacts of wireless networks on health, others are aiming to install wireless networks in hospitals.
