Question for all you computer Guru's out there.

This might be kind of a stupid question but I was wondering if my cpap is capable of getting a virus from my computer. Say, my computer all of a sudden gets a virus and I put my SD card in to read my data like I always do. Is it possible that my SD card could pick up the virus and infect my cpap when I put the SD card back and my machine reads it??

Thanks.

No, its not at risk.

The process control capability that's inside your flow generator is intrinsically different to the general purpose computing capability that is inside your PC.

Cheers,
