Technology infrastructures are key to both military and civilian activities and represented one of the first targets destroyed in past wars. Hence, telecommunication network outages are becoming more common in wars. However, telemedicine could be the only way to help treat military and civilian patients with routine and emergent conditions. There is no legal recognition of telemedicine as a (direct) fundamental right, although healthcare has been considered a human right since 1946.

Abstract
Technology infrastructures are key to both military and civilian activities and represented one of the first targets destroyed in past wars. Hence, telecommunication network outages are becoming more common in wars. However, telemedicine could be the only way to help treat military and civilian patients with routine and emergent conditions. There is no legal recognition of telemedicine as a (direct) fundamental right, although healthcare has been considered a human right since 1946.File in questo prodotto:
