在医院、诊所和其他保健设施,Y2K虫有可能威胁生命。如果在诊断或治疗期间,允许极其贵重的医疗设备失效或产生误差,就有可能危及患者。涉及辐射应用的医疗是特别令人关注的领域。每年几百万名患者的保健包含,用放射性药物或辐射技术诊断和治疗疾病。例如,在癌患者用钴-60治疗或在近距疗法中,不正确地计算放射性核素衰变,可导致患者接受错误的辐射剂量。对所有类型医疗来说,千年虫有可能造成几乎无限
Y2K insects can be life-threatening in hospitals, clinics and other health facilities. It is possible to endanger a patient by allowing the most expensive medical device to fail or have an error during a diagnosis or treatment. Medical related radiation applications are of particular interest. The health care of millions of patients every year includes the use of radiopharmaceuticals or radiation to diagnose and treat the disease. For example, incorrect calculation of radionuclide decay in cancer patients treated with cobalt-60 or in brachytherapy can result in the patient receiving the wrong radiation dose. For all types of medical treatment, the millennium bug may cause almost unlimited
