Yup, having problems to see a GP and get antibiotics in time could very easily play a factor in these deaths. The cold snap starts in a few days. Things are going to get much grimmer.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-63788730 Peanut allergies: Parents worry after Palforzia drug sales flop Oh, its the PARENTS that are worrying a $500 dollar drug isn't selling. The parents. Not the drug company, its the PARENTS quote:But the drug seems to have flopped commercially after lower-than-expected uptake among doctors, according to Nestlé. Why are Nestle in this, maybe its due to the nuts in their sweets and... quote:Just two years after packaged-food giant Nestlé bought the manufacturer of Palforzia They own it. But its the PARENTS that are worried that they cant find $500 medicine handy. FFS at least make an effort to cover up the paid for articles.

Guavanaut posted:Failed Imagineer will probably have better input than I, but I think it's from Gaeilge for mouth or lip, via bus, not anything to do with the Latin for rotten or corrupt flesh (pus) or the Old Germanic-Anglish for the sound a cat makes (puss/poes/pos/I'm not sure any of them actually heard a real cat). Whenever I try and attract a cat the sound used here is "kss kss kss", I dunno why except it's said cats listen to S sounds extra well, which might be BS. For our cat it's a pretty surefire way though. I think most languages have their own sounds and I guess cats learn to recognize it for what it is.

a pipe smoking dog posted:It's also possible they are dying because the NHS is collapsing. An FT reporter dug into this a few months back and basically I think the general narrative should be that a deeply wounded NHS is being finished off by covid, both in terms of the direct impact of it and long covid but also the sudden disruption of service from the pandemic has continued to cause the UK population to be generally sicker and untreated longer: https://www.ft.com/content/c333a6d8-0a56-488c-aeb8-eeb1c05a34d2 The trend in people unable to work due to long term sickness is just a little bit pre-pandemic meaning covid is a strong factor rather than primary cause. Weekly mortality has been elevated to above the second standard deviation for most of the weeks of the year as well: https://www.gov.uk/government/stati...to-week-44-data And in the last part of the year is calculated to have a really strong non-covid component: https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopula...insights/deaths That certainly could be long covid created death by other means but generally the outlook is really really bad. I guess this is slightly irrelevant when talking about children specifically although lack of early access to medical treatment will definitely cause worse outcomes.

He originally wanted to be a kirkman like his da, so I imagine he was ringing at 11pm to warn Kier not to turn the TV onto the high number channels because there's all kinds of touching on there, the antichrist walks among us you know. Kier is too piss drunk to even find the remote.

With the pus meaning mouth I'm assuming it's a b/p hardening from bus likely from French bouche, or whatever proto-word that became modern bouche.

I get my cat's attention by going SIMBA FOR gently caress'S SAKE while she is inevitably yowling her head off at 3am because her heat pad's timer went off and it's cold now. That doesn't work though. What works is if I hiss really loudly. So basically I hope the neighbours can't hear me because I sound like a furious vampire. She does often look into the camera while I'm trying to take pictures though. Selfie cat.

Thing is I don't necessarily mind if people ask where I'm from but generally it's because it's someone else with more diverse heritage than "white British" curious about a fellow funny tinge haver. I guess if a snobby white woman was asking it while waving calipers I'd feel differently about it.

Most people are happy to talk about their heritage and the positive parts of it that they identify with, but if it turns into a "no but where are you really really from, you can't say a white place" inquisition then that's very different. Lots of English people (I bet they're really really from Jutland) deliberately failing to grasp the difference between the two on social media today.

Yeah, definitely asking "where are you from" getting an English town and going "yeah no where are you really from, Negroid" with the italics part silent but audible, that's a different ball game to "ah nice, and what's your family heritage?" and if they aren't happy to say then shutting the gently caress up.

"Where are you from" implies 'you're not from here' and unless you're a farmer warning tourists away from the moors at night, this is absolutely unacceptable behaviour.

That's true, normally I only ask "where are you from" to someone with an obviously non-local accent. I guess to someone as inbred as the queen's advisor a normal London accent does sound non-local.

It depends on context too, if you're at a networking event for people from all over then "where are you from?" can be a neutral question, but if you get "Bob's Plastic Extrusion in Sheffield" as an answer then understand that you've been granted an out rather than an invitation to double down.

I guess that's sort of the point. Tbh I'd sit on them regardless and move if I need to later rather than sit on the floor but I probably don't have a political point to make.
