However, one thing the RDF does not do: it does not tell you the
boundary of what is included in a document. If a FHIR resource is
represented in RDF, there is nothing explicit in it to indicate that the
document contains all and only the RDF triples for that FHIR resource.
This is a little different from the XML and JSON worlds, in which there
is an explicit top element, with everything else nested inside. But
aside from that caveat, one should be able to look at the RDF triples to
see that it contains a fhir:AllergyInterance resource, for example.
Actually, I'm noticing that our current example is lacking the explicit
mention of fhir:AllergyIntolerance, so I've raise an issue about that:

In what way can a piece of Turtle be a resource?
it represents a statement of the content of a fhir resource
btw, I am presently using 'text/turtle; x-dialect=fhir', but I have no

With RDF, you retrieve it and make rules that apply to the
vocabularies used in it (properties, types etc).

Do you (or
