Highly communicable in an enclosed environment like, say, -any- space habitat, yes.
And I agree, "oopsware" is a cool name.
I suspect the nerve linkages required for decent medical-grade cybernetics are going to be one of our big early exports to daneside, as soon as that tech is figured out. It's the sort of thing I can see somebody like AC or The Professor trying to patent before the TSAB beats them to it.
A lot of the big locations should add sections on what sort of medical care is available there... Stellvia probably has a full-stocked hospital, Grover's Corners might have a small clinic... I can see Greenwood having a lot of experience in helping folk rebuild after mining accidents -- probably only generally deals in alpha and beta level 'ware, but has a very good therapy/rehab division for recovery afterwards.
