Dear Doves,

"Unlike the stick-on electronic tattoos that use an elastic polymer backing and can easily wash off in the shower or swimming pool, the new e-tats do away with the polymer backing and are printed directly on the skin. Doing so made the sensors 1/30th as thick as previous devices and better at conforming to the natural ridges of skin.
.......

Once the sensors were printed on the skin, researchers used a commercially available spray-on bandage to protect the electronics. However, due to the skin’s natural exfoliation process, the sensors flaked off after two weeks. Researchers said this is a fundamental flaw of epidermal electronics. To achieve a longer lifespan, sensors would need to be embedded under the skin like read tattoos. Stay tuned. That can’t be far off."

PS~~I can see how the noisome sores come about.  The only thing worse than having noisome sores...is having noisome sores *forever*...and worse.

Revelation 9:6

"And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them."
