we are users like yourself, we have no insight how to reach elected officials in various countries where your ECG does not currently function


ECG is

viewed as a medical device which mean it require official approval from the

government of a country before it's legal for apple to offer


ECG implies

that citizens' medical data be stored by a foreign third-party company without

individual approval by the government of said country, and that is not

something all countries feel comfortable with.
