Hail to our lavatorarily-obsessed Orwellians!
OMG another wrongthinker!
I can't think of one incident where a troon had spilled blood for the rights of anyone but himself. Also note the irrelevant #COVID19 tag in the troon's post.
Mermaids UK and their parent-proof button:
Well I did say cuts down your adornment, but I won't go to such extreme as shaving your hair:
+ + + +
Anyone who ever worked clinical jobs for NHS would hate the Caliphate government for their low-cost (hence high demand) public health care. I'm pretty sure Harrop is supported by his folks and he plays doctor for fun.
Like many tards, Harrop sees covid-19 as the opportunity to push universal basic income:
How much is £1,500 a month (£18K a year)? Is it pocket change or quite a lot? Fortunately, for those of us who don't live in the Caliphate, Harrop provides us a yardstick:
In Harrop's Labour Utopia, a qualified rookie nurse, who has a college degree and working in a high-stress, high-risk setting, just makes double than what a layabout automatically receives as his birthright, and the head of state barely makes more than 4x. Way to encourage innovation and experimentation on new ways of living!
You can practically marinate yourself in L'Occitane shit with that UBI Harrop proposes.
Some medical technicalities that I can't resist the urge to sperg about:
I think a lot of these tests are for research rather than management purposes. Ferritin is more relevant in bacterial rather than viral infections. D-dimer is a mark for disseminated intravascular coagulation, i.e. your sepsis fucks you up so much that blood clots in your capillaries. Troponin is, as Harrop points out, a mark for myocardial damage. BNP (B-type Natriuretic Peptide: I have to look this one up) is a very new test for congestive heart failure and I suspect not yet routine. Harrop's innocent query hits upon a truth: a researcher can't be arsed to pour over hundreds of thousands electrocardiogram traces, but hundreds of thousands of numbers are easily handled.
Ben Lovell is right in thinking that blanket ordering of tests is a bugbear to good clinical practice: not only is it expensive, it also causes clinicians to fret over mysterious deviations from normal values and distract them from more important clinical signs and test results. This is I think one of the many areas where the interests of researchers are at odds with clinicians.
