Lesson number 1 of EMT school: we don't diagnose.

^yep. We just react. Triage, patch the holes, fill the pipes, stabilize, transport.

This is an MIT study, haven’t seen it reported anywhere but the results are a bit freaky. Can understand why younger folks may skip the vax

This doesn’t prove anything. It was a poorly designed and limited statistical analysis. You’ve apparently glossed over the discussion in this thread.

Plenty of studies also show the rate of heart problems is much higher with Covid than the vaccine.

So what was misinformation?

It’s an MIT analysis of existing data out of Israel with the goal of improving data collection bc of under and over reporting and self reporting biases that exist.

“This study aims to explore how additional data sources, such as those from emergency medical services (EMS), can complement self-reporting vaccine surveillance systems in identifying COVID-19 related public health trends.”

News flash: it can't. For a large variety of reasons:
- caller reports are largely wrong
- EMS practitioners don't diagnose
- EMS practitioners are not equipped to know what's truly going on
- EMS practitioner documentation is poor at best and would be exceedingly difficult to accurately draw broad accurate conclusions from
- The inherent nature of EMS call environments is hard to take into account in data analysis

One of them have been hit with covid and we are suffering in sales. Our director somehow don’t believe in marketing and will not budge to allocate resources to hire a personnel. Our staff are underpaid so there are no incentives for them to go beyond their SOW.

Anyone have three kids and working in big law? I just found out I’m pregnant with no. 3 and it’s been a lot trying to juggle morning sickness, but based on my experience, I know this is only the tip of the iceberg of what’s to come. My husband and I are elated, but the anxiety of being a mom of 3 kids and working in big law is preventing me from truly enjoying this news. It would be good to know what it’s really like having 3 kids so that I can evaluate how long I really have left in big law.

How much would a 30 day supply of Vyvanse (30mg) cost me after insurance? I know this is going to vary by plan but I'm still curious as to know how expensive of a medication this is.

My pharmacy informed me that the insurance will not cover without authorization from the psych. My psych was wary about this & instead suggested Ritalin during my session. He mentioned that insurance companies want us to first try Ritalin because they are generally cheaper. How much truth is there to this? Thanks!

I started dating this guy some months before covid struck.. he was literally crazy about me. He even stayed in Hyderabad for months just so that we could meet once before he went on to stay with his family. After that it had been a real roller coaster. He pampered me a lot before and now he hardly talks. We both have switched to different companies (earlier were in the same) and now he works 6 days a week. Sleeps or Vists his relatives or works on Sundays. Sometimes I feel he no longer loves me.

How has COVID affected your work hours?

Hello! I’m an LMSW in Michigan with 15 years experience in the field doing case management, supervision, and administrative roles. All of my experience has happened in the CMH or VA health system, so needless to say, I am feeling burned out. I have flirted many times with private practice therapy work, but never taken the plunge due to concern about healthcare benefits from my spouse. Is it worth it to make the change? Are we overthinking it?

3) Is it not clear that electoral campaigns sponsored by corporations are problematic for a democratic society ?

4) Everyone says “get an education” but that’s impossible with high costs. Why not make tuition free of charge ?
