Rejoice, needle phobics of the world! The future is now less scary as a Wisconsin start-up, Tasso Inc, has come up with a needle-free way of drawing blood for test.
Behold, the Hemolink! This clever little device utilizes micro-fluid properties and use a vacuum-like process to draw blood from below the skin without having to puncture it or use any kind of needle. Uhuh, no needles!

The Hemolink will be able to draw 0.15 of a cubic centimeter of blood enough to test for blood sugar, cholesterol, cancer cells and infection.

The device can also give you the option to post your blood sample to be tested. An excellent news for those who dislike doctors almost as much as needles.

Hemolink is still being developed but it could be available as soon as late 2016.
