"*.**government’s plan to** implement new legislation that will create a tax for sugar and excess salt as well as **try to eliminate trans fats being imported into the country***"

Seriously? After they approved iHop?

"*Health and Wellness Minister Dr Michael Darville unveiled the plans on Monday, but **could not give specifics** on what is being proposed*"

of course not, they read a social media post and reacted, how can you expect them to have a plan.. after 50 years?

They've deflected to a problem that they can appear to be addressing by organizing hasty blood drive events, meanwhile the real issue is not being addressed

**"*Blood supply problems*" seems like a straw man argument to me**. While a blood transfusion may have saved the young lady's life after she descended into a critical state and is certainly an issue that needs to be addressed, she was **allowed to descend** into that critical state **over the course of 4 months**. The full story of the last days of her life as detailed by her husband is a horror story of one medical blunder after the next. Mistakes can happen anywhere our priblem is when mistakes do happen we deflect, either there was no mistake or we project onto an issue unrelated to the root of the problem

**I think the need for blood was the result of a health challenge left unaddressed that turned into a crisis**. I dont think the full story is about the need for blood. **Listening to the husband there's a long list of places where they failed her BEFORE blood became an issue**. Did the doctor really say *after her social media post, he'd write her a discharge note before he'd write her a referral to a US hospital*? Who are these heartless people mascarading as caregivers like another one said some months ago *he'd let every unvaccinated patient die*

This is unimaginable. In recent years Ive lost elderly relatives and years later I am still wondering why they had to leave so soon. To lose someone you were lucky enough to find then fall in love with and just started a life with... I cant comprehend it. I dont want to comprehend it.

A week ago I posted this:

*This is a very interesting story reported on cnn.com. It sounds so familiar*

*By Tara Subramaniam and Vedika Sud, CNN Published 6:47 PM EST, Fri January 13, 2023 CNN — .**For YEARS, residents in the northern Indian city of Joshimath have complained to local officials** that their homes are sinking. **Now authorities are being forced to take action**, evacuating nearly 100 families in the last week and expediting the **arrival of experts to determine the cause.***

**Cracks** running through the city **are now so wide** that hundreds of homes are no longer habitable, and some fear that India could lose a key gateway to religious pilgrimages and tourist expeditions on nearby mountain trails.*

*Kwatra added that the natural factors which put Joshimath, home to around 25,000 people, at risk of sinking are “being exacerbated by large scale construction projects as well as climate induced flash floods and extreme rainfall*.”

***Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami visited the affected areas last saturday** inspecting the homes of residents who fear the structures may collapse."*"-cnn.com

*This is what we do with everything. Ignore it, scurry around when the problem becomes too big to ignore then some official shows up with cameras and a large entourage to walk around to see for themselves.. as if that does anything. The next update I expect to hear is the city gone and the officials have arrived with remediation equipment*

I'll try to think of a solution for an automated repost so I can click a button as every unaddressed decades long problem boils over again and again

True no report was ever given for Shenique Miller's sister

We need to identify causes. Maybe volunteers don't address the cause.

True! I also said I was told *dont trust someone just because theyre in a white coat, here or in the US* which I guess would qualify as "more prestigious"

Yes they have enough money, but its useless without a country strategy. I recently found out that President Xi is a biiiigggg sports fan and promotes national fitness. If our people were fit, PMH wouldnt have as many challenges. But we have no strategy for "fit". We just jumped up and down because another fast food joint with processed fats and sugars is opening and will employ 600 people. Good for people with jobs but does it fit our strategy? Maybe, cuz we dont have one...

The other non-money element is standards. If there were standards "*dangerous*" doctors could be identified more easily

Had a family member who went through rigors of COVID infection and is today 1 year later still suffering from "*weird*" biological after effects. Noone diagnosed the after effects as COVID related but they're weird and the only variable change was COVID. I dont think COVID bites but I dont want it and try to wear a mask in crowded environments
