The Lone Badger posted:They've used the same treatment a few more times and it hasn't worked, so it seems it was a fluke. It turns out (paper retracted because table 1 is plagiarized, not because the facts are wrong) that there are so far 29 human survivors of rabies known. Part of the table is plagiarized from here. Four of the known survivors used the Milwaukee protocol, or a modification. e:f,b and with more recent data, too!

JeremoudCorbynejad posted:I once got a tiny scratch from a monkey in Nepal and I went batshit crazy about possibly dying of rabies The flip side to this is apparently if you get the full vaccines before you show symptoms, you'll be okay. If this story is real, this woman is running a total scam. OP's comment: quote:She got back this weekend. She was gone for 2 weeks, and the bite happened at the beginning of the vacation. Part of why she opted out of getting the rest of the shots was because she did feel really lovely and rundown and missed out on snorkeling or something the day after she got the first round of shots, and didn't want the rest of the shots to mess up her vacation. And she was convinced that missing the shots wasn't a big deal, and that the doctors didn't tell her how important getting the full set of shots was. The story is very believable, if not true, because people are morons about their healthcare. Years ago I read some evangelical Christian propaganda about how you should become a Christian because if you were sick, wouldn't you want the best medical care and the best doctors, therefore wouldn't you ? (This was before Steve Jobs was diagnosed with cancer and I think before the "vaccines cause autism" movement really hit it big in the US.) I haven't thought of that in ages but it popped into my head recently because of how stupidly people are responding to Covid. I also enjoy reading horrible stories from health care professionals and there's been stuff like the woman who had to have the same eye operation three times because instead of going home and lying down quietly she went to family dinners and stuff. Because the alternative to screwing up recovery from an operation on her eyeball was that she didn't get to go to a family dinner. There was also a story about a kid who had an eye operation and then went on a roller coaster at an amusement park a few days later, but I give that kid a pass because we're all morons at age twelve; the adults were really the ones who failed there. Anyway, that one couldn't be fixed and now he doesn't have that eye anymore.

Besides having his wishes violated after his death, it's a pretty mild revenge. Dad was cared for in a nursing home until he died while OP managed his estate the way it should have been managed all along. OP earned that money!Soylent Pudding posted:AITA for sending my stepson to his mom after he flushed my daughter's formula down the toilet and wanting to tell his dad?

100% believe rabies woman. We had a fairly recent case where some idiot 20-something saw a "bat acting really weird" so of course instantly got out his phone to try to earn some tiktok cred. Went over and picked up the bat and handled it while laughing about how weird the bad was acting. Eventually threw it down after it bit him. What a funny video. He died. None of his idiot friends knew what rabies was. They knew he was bit and everyone agreed to just wait and see how he felt, only went to the doctor after symptoms started. Also this is canada so there was no financial consideration to seeing the doctor. Baronjutter fucked around with this message at 19:30 on Nov 17, 2021 |

DAD LOST MY IPOD posted:yeah this is kind of a hosed up story but the Occam’s razor explanation is that Lauren and Liz are in love with each other and have been for a long time. This story almost creeps me out because I absolutely knew a duo like this. They’d constantly triangulate each-other against new “enemies” so the whole dynamic is based on “us” vs “them.” The woman’s grief itself is understandable but the treatment of the husband in the story is so familiar; a total inability to process her own emotions so all the bad feelings get projected and blamed on an easy target. The duo I knew is a straight woman and gay man and there’s nothing romantic between them, just a completely toxic emotional dependency.

Tendales posted:Sure, in the same way that table salt is ~50% chlorine. Strictly speaking cane sugar is 0% fructose. Sucrose is a fructose molecule bonded to a glucose molecule, but that bond still matters. For example, the bacteria that produces plaque and fucks up your teeth can only process sucrose, not fructose or glucose. There is a connection between consumption of hfcs and insulin resistance. Phone posting so I can't give you papers on it right now.

This rabies talk is making me nervous because I was scratched by a kitten in an animal shelter awhile back, and because the scratch was barely a red line, not bleeding, I didn't think that 'counted' enough to report to the staff, so now and then when my anxiety creeps in late at night I get worried that maybe I have a slow moving rabies infection and just don't know yet!! But that was like 7ish years ago at this point, the kitten had been in the shelter with its litter for awhile, and they went out to a foster, so I'm probably fine, right? Riiiiight?
