Recently, google's official blog published an article by prem ramaswami, the signed product manager, stating that the google knowledge mapping (knowledge graph) has collected a great deal of medical health knowledge, and that soon users will have direct access to medical information on google's search for a medical problem, which may include symptoms, treatments, infections, etc。
According to blogs, every 20 searches are health-related. Perm stated that he had had his own child fall from the bed, fearing a concussion as a result of the impact, and had searched google for the relevant information, but was unable to find it directly。
According to google, these medical information differs significantly from the same medical information available in the 100-degree search engine. Google stated that, in order to obtain adequate medical information, google had been working with a team of doctors and was being reviewed by professional doctors and well-known mayo clinics in the hope of providing professional services and information gathering. Moreover, presentation is a direct answer that does not require users to look for from the link。
Currently, this service will cover more than 400 medical issues and will be available only to the english-language search site in the united states, both pc and mobile。
