I paid $50 for mine, however I got mine on a Sunday at an after hours clinic after stepping on a rusty nail. Not all tetanus boosters have the whooping cough vaccine, they would have given me the standard one for free but then I would have needed the whooping cough vaccine shortly after for my impending child. Apparently that one does *not* come separately and it's not recommended to get two tetanus shots in 6mo. I later found out that the tetanus vaccine does not work prophylactically, and the whole "step on a nail and get your booster" thing is just a trick to get people to actually bother getting a booster.

At a lot of clinics the doctor wouldn't own the clientele, so informing you of their departure is probably a breach of their contract.

RC Bandit posted:Ok I'm starting to get annoyed that our government can't get their poo poo together as I'm STILL ineligible to get a vaccine (in Victoria). Vaccines have been available for so long now that I think the wisdom of reserving them for particular groups has probably passed. Just let anyone get a vaccine, allow bookings for the current priority groups with extra lead time so they can secure a booking easier even if they have to wait. (I.e. any open booking for the current week is open to anyone, any bookings more than a week out reserved for the priority groups)

quote:I was able to intercept an entire pallet of Pfizers first vaccine shipment. 4000 doses at 2 shots per dose. I've got it stored in a chest freezer in my garage. Ive been injecting myself every day, sometimes multiple times a day if I can stand it. The symptoms were terrible for the first few weeks. There were times I was completely paralyzed with pain, contorted like the Edvard munch painting and frozen in agony for hours. I became stronger and some of the worst symptoms subsided over time. I've been vaxmaxxing for almost 4 months now and I feel as though I'm becoming something greater than human now. I will continue to administer the injections into the same arm as long as possible. I'm increasing the dosages as much as I can stand and will maintain my journal.

You clearly haven't read the exasperated stories of people with antivax relatives/friends/neighbours who literally lose spouses/children/siblings and continue on undeterred. The only time I hear the opposite is from healthcare workers being begged by dying people to give them the vaccine by antivaxxers on their deathbed.

froglet posted:This has lead to the traditionally more sheltered areas homeless people could previously rely on as a reasonably sheltered (or at least safer) place to sleep at night (e.g. beneath the Lord St bridge in East Perth) becoming fenced off or otherwise made inaccessible or inhospital to these people. I loving hate that we don't support the homeless more. Honestly nobody should have to sleep rough, we can do way better as a society. But you do your argument a disservice with this one; this encampment was getting to the point where they were blocking the only pedestrian/bike thoroughfare into the city along there and I was threatened and spat on multiple times for daring to simply ride into work. The detour was about 3km to avoid it.

Cartoon posted:The ALP 'lost' their status as economic managers due to Whitlam's Khemlani loan scandal. The lost is in quotes because any left leaning government is targeted for poor ecoomic management entirely because they want to redistribute wealth. Which ironically is much better economic management than supporting the rich to get richer

Ghost Leviathan posted:Been said for a while that the big generational wealth transfer from the Boomers isn't happening, or rather, it's the Boomers' money getting all sucked up by creditors, banks and palliative care. Even for a lot of the richest. The Boomers who had it good, or believed they did, simply cannot acknowledge that the exact same opportunities that they enjoyed no longer exist, and will die with a smile leaving their children jack poo poo. So what you are saying is that to bootstrap yourself is to join the healthcare or aged sectors to suck the boomers dry
