That AND it disrupted access to healthcare for people with active infections. We're not talking people can't drive 15 minutes to get treatments, we're talking multiple days of travel to other towns.
This travel time was already a barrier to their access to care. Disruptions to travel, medical supplies, and quarantines from covid have also added to this burden.
TB disproportionately affects countries that have been heavily exploited by the imperial core.
By "infected" I mean they have latent TB. Once you have TB, it never actually goes away, it just becomes "dormant" and will opportunistically become an active infection again later.
So you could say up to 1/3 are carriers, but I don't really like that term, as it implies they are carriers like they carry a certain gene, when with TB, your immune cells basically just clump around TB to quarantine it. If your immune system gets weak or that clump of cells gets disrupted, boom! You have active TB.
It takes an incredibly low amount of exposure to transmit TB to someone else too.
Yeah, but they didn't have a profit motive to dRiVe InNoVaTiOn.
I know professional scientists that have to do this because their bosses pay them so little. They make less than the people working at gas stations and are working to make life-saving medicines.
It's despicable.
I figured that's how they would get around it, but also that there are surely people who purposely miss pronounce it. Seems much easier to make the acronym different by doing something like omitting the B.
Feels like it's purpose-made to invite bad behavior.
I have yet to find German food that fits my tastes, but I guess I'll give it another shot. Gotta say Thai, Indian, and Mexican are probably my favorites. And sushi. I could eat only sushi for the rest of my life and be happy with it.
Pretty sure $1000 is the line where it becomes a felony. Walmart has been known to keep track of theft and wait until they have enough evidence to bust you for a felony. "If we hit them with a felony, they go to prison and they can't steal anymore," is the justification. Really, they just don't see us as humans.
It's indefensible for any country to produce or stockpile WP munitions these days.
Fundamentally naive take.
Tell me you know nothing about socialism without saying you know nothing about socialism.
All cars are a menace from any perspective but that of the car.
The only time electric cars make too little noise to hear is when they are driving at speeds that aren't guaranteed to kill you. After about 30mph/50kph, the vast majority of sound comes from the tires unless you drive one of those horrendously loud trucks or motorcycles.
Muscle cars are cool at car shows, but not passing through neighborhoods or areas where people are trying to enjoy talking outdoors.
Not surprising. The US Hyundai factories and the contractors they hire are well known to treat worker health and safety as secondary to literally everything else. Don't promote workplace safety, get capped by unsafe work conditions, poetic justice.
