Although it's true that doctors often actively resist the EHR systems, I'm pretty sure this will be the hallmark of the medicine in the 21st century. The possibilities are endless: mining for epidemiological data or adverse events, for instance.
The osmotic pressure of your fluids is hormonally regulated. Thus if you drink hypotonic fluid, simply less water will leave the body as urine and at the same time toxins and waste produced is enough to sustain the proper osmotic pressure.
The real problem is the intake of hypertonic solution, because there is not really any other way to get those salts out of the body than diluting them in more water which leads to dehydration.

I think you meant sickle cell anaemia where defective red blood cells are less prone to malaria infection.
Well, at least they didn't use the Vista speech recognition. That could end up as some MAJOR diplomatic misunderstanding...
Which is a common belief but totally untrue.
