Dr Google will see you now
You're whizzing along a dark, outback highway when the symptoms start. Your mouth is so dry it's getting hard to swallow or talk, your grip on the steering wheel is weakening and that centre white line just turned into two. You pull in at a small town hospital where the tired junior doctor tells you it's probably a virus, and then hands your case over to night staff. She retakes your history wearing Google Glass, and the web-enabled headgear uses voice recognition to input your symptoms into a massive data base. It's botulism; very rare, often fatal, and you're just in time to get the antitoxin.
