They did say what it was contaminated with it just took a few days, thorn apple. As to any "well if that's all why did it take so long" that inevitably follows it's a commercial farming operation over gently caress knows how many ks, they can acknowledge they're the source of something and still not have 24/7 to scour the loving fields for it. gently caress conspiracy people make me so mad, like answers are just loving instantaneous and you can just put together an investigation like that before some news anchor can finish saying "don't eat spinach"

Do I have any recourse to Karen-it-up over a bulk billing GP (3 of them at the same clinic) refusing to do a walk-in? It was an injury, not something we could have booked in advance. We got it taken care of by going to the hospital but I'm loving annoyed cos I feel like a goose going the hospital with something non lifethreatening and those lazy pricks wouldn't even loving look at it to say "yeah, it's bad enough we don't want to risk it".

I should be clear, not to harass receptionists, to be honest the receptionist and nurse actually tried their best. I mean like is there any pointing trying to write to RACGP or AMA or somebody who might give a poo poo and tell the practice generally to, politely and formally, eat poo poo and stop adding pressure to the hospital system? Or is this all part of a strategic lying down over bulk billing rebates and no1curr

Cool idea when ibuprofen is associated with risk of bleeds in lots of contexts so will force a gently caress tonne of people to the GP for ... A headache! Edit: I'm not watching channel 9, maybe it's proposing packet size limits and drivers licence flashing that just makes it inconvenient chemist visits and it's just tough luck if you don't have a 24hr chemist on hand and the ability to get there with something simple like aforementioned headaches G-Spot Run fucked around with this message at 01:38 on Feb 7, 2023 |

my genetic legacy is the ability to gently caress up a public holiday, so extreme ymmv vibes, but i've had lots of inconveniently timed pain management experiences and i just feel bad for those similarly afflicted.

froglet posted:Guess who's pregnant and been taking the stuff to the max this past week coz there's really not much else I can take with this blasted virus or the tonsilitis that took over after?! Everything is risky and poorly understood in pregnancy because it's not ethical to test anything, not on mothers or on random embryos in a lab. Fever, virus, ibuprofen would all be some degree riskier ... For that matter, salad is recognised as a bigger risk than paracetamol. Try not to think about it too much

It's not as simple as that for many reasons including accessibility of immediate or per-day trips to get more, how the per-day limit translates to medicines for children (doses are very precise, getting that little bit of liquid slurry out without air bubbles mucking up the measurement in a nearly empty bottle with your patience intact while your child is miserable is an exercise in sainthood), and how it's going to lead to a lot more people having to go to emergency and gp clinics because the times we need medicine are often not the times the chemist is open (or when you can go to Coles for adult packets. Maybe. If the legislation to limit packet sales is trusting minimum wage retail to give a gently caress)

this was 10 years ago though when the teacher shortage was largely academic so i gave up after two years of being unable to find a metro job. I had 2 interviews for long service leave positions and even quit my job in part to pursue casual relief and it just never happened, rip, so it was $30k for nothing

There's a science communicator/YouTuber Sabine Hossenfelder who has a very good video talking about hydro of all colours of the rainbow. I watch them as I'm going to sleep usually, so I'm paraphrasing a lot here, but the vibe I left with was ".... Nah". I think it's this one https://youtu.be/Zklo4Z1SqkE
