The computer will see you now

Three medical totems" have just been installed at a public health clinic in Jordao, Acre, a remote area in the Amazon where the doctor-patient ratio is the lowest in Brazil. The machines are the first in a total of seven that will be placed in the area to measure vital signs and host virtual appointments. The totems, which also translate to the local Indigenous language, were developed by a doctor at the tech company Foxconn in Jundiai, almost 2,000 miles away, and funded by government subsidies.
