Swine Flu Robot Unveiled in Japan
http://uk.news.yahoo.com/21/20091022/thl-swine-flu-robot-unveiled-in-japan-d831572.html
The life-sized humanoid machine, displayed at the Security & Safety Trade Expo (RISCON) in Tokyo, exhibits symptoms of the H1N1 flu virus.

It was developed to help medical workers recognise symptoms of the illness and learn to treat patients.

The robot is coated in a human-like skin. It sweats, moans, cries and convulses, just like a human would when infected with the H1N1 virus.

If it is not treated properly the symptoms gradually get worse and the robot stops breathing...

Isn't that just the same robot they use to train police interrogators?

Yeah, except the police training manual says: If it is treated properly...the robot stops breathing

I don't get it, don't they have enough real people to practice on. What a complete was of time and money.
I am not really sure where I am going, I just hope that when I get there, I can sit down because I am sure my feet will be tired.

Especially, with the "stop breathing" part....

The good thing is that once they find a cure for swine flu and these things become obsolete, they can be sold as choke-fuck love dolls to the Akiba Otaku crowd.
