Does VeriChip have anything to do with the RFID microchips seen being inserted into peoples hands?
The RFID microchips recently inserted into the hands of some individuals for the purpose of speeding everyday authentication (e.g. signing onto a computer) are not related to VeriChip in any way. More importantly, those microchips have not received FDA testing and clearance. VeriChip’s human-implantable RFID microchip inserted into the right triceps during a physician visit is the only implantable RFID technology with FDA clearance.
