All this shit about "stimulating the immune system" to apparently improve your immune response sounds like a bunch of bullshit to me.
Mock scenario:
Doc: So, we've essentially installed a cattle prod inside your right gluteus maximus to stiumulate your amblulatory capacity
Patient: wait. What? I thought this was a procedure to prevent, in the unlikely event, the loss of my ability to walk.
Doc: oh it was never designed like that. No, no, this just stimulates the bodies innate abilities. In turn, enhancing your amblulatory processes. It is quite safe and effective.
Patient: but doc, its all over the tv that people have sudden walking ceasation syndrome. They all said, along with the govt, that getting this implant will keep me safe.
Doc: oh but it does, our limited and poorly constructed study shows that this procedure increases walking rates in 109% of all subjects. Here let me turn it on for you.
Patient: OW! FUCK!
Doc: its based on steps per hour. The shocks will reduce when those requirements are met. They change based on the number of positive cases in your area, as a way to combat the syndrome. Luckily, now that you've completed your operation, and test run, I have been authorised to mark you as medically compliant. Enjoy your newly re-aquired freedom.
