The big idea
Pharmacies use AI to help find the right bandage for the right boo-boo.
Some examples
- AI suggests bandage sizes based on the cut
- Some bandages are made for sports vs. baths
- Pharmacists still give the real advice
- Always tell a grown-up about cuts
Try it!
With a grown-up, look at your home first-aid kit. Find 3 different bandage sizes.
