"In Bangladesh, vaccinators chased down children hiding in trees and vaccinated them against their will and without their parents’ consent. Many other vaccinators in Bangladesh favored trains, because people couldn’t run away.
Villagers concealed smallpox cases, including babies under blankets, and sent children to hide in the fields when the vaccinators approached. Their main fear was loss of livelihood – people locked away in quarantine (guarded by sentries paid by the WHO) could not work, and neither could children with a sore arm following vaccination. WHO policy prevailed over the rights of the individual: dissenters were held down, but only for the few seconds needed to wield the bifurcated needle.
In Ethopia and Somalia, teams sat at watering holes and coercively vaccinated any nomads that came by."
I agree with Ozy here that the violation of bodily autonomy makes this much more awkward a victory. But as justified violations of deontology go "We need everyone to do this or it will result in millions more deaths" is a near perfect example
hi, a lot of you need a perspective reset
- the average human lifespan globally is 70+ years
- taking the threshold of adulthood as 18, you are likely to spend at least 52 years as a fully grown adult
- at the age of 30 you have lived less than one quarter of your adult life (12/52 years)
- 'middle age' is typically considered to be between 45-65
- it is extremely common to switch careers, start new relationships, emigrate, go to college for the first or second time, or make other life-changing decisions in middle age
- it's wild that I even have to spell it out, but older adults (60+) still have social lives and hobbies and interests.
- you can still date when you get old. you can still fuck. you can still learn new skills, be fashionable, be competitive. you can still gossip, you can still travel, you can still read. you can still transition. you can still come out.
- young doesn't mean peaked. you're inexperienced in your 20s! you're still learning and practicing! you're developing social skills and muscle memory that will last decades!
- there are a million things to do in the world, and they don't vanish overnight because an imaginary number gets too big

Every time I see another ibuprofen post on this site I'm like STOP
STOP
Stop.
Take that after a meal. Take it with a big glass of water. Don't take it on an empty stomach EVER. Don't take it with alcohol. You will destroy your stomach. You will end up with an ulcer. You will vomit blood. I'm not exaggerating.
Yes, you. Yes, it will happen to cute little you. With your cute little bottle of miracles. Ibuprofen really does that to your body.
Love, an adult person over 35 who can't take NSAIDs anymore
That goes for Alleve (Naproxen Sodium) too! Aleve is worse on your stomach than Ibuprofen is.
Acetaminophen, not a NSAID, even more so that NSAIDS, should not be taken when drinking. No seriously, it causes liver and stomach damage (and it's particularly hard on the liver to start with).
Painkillers are great! But the common ones are still nasty on your stomach and liver and eventually they won't be an option for you. If you take them with care, you can extend how long you can keep using them.
The sources linked are great but the tone of this post is such that it really only serves to make people anxious rather than to inform. The least you could do is mention what daily dose is safe (1200 milligrams per day for ibuprofen, preferably not for extended periods) and how often you would have to take ibuprofen on an empty stomach for it to make you start vomiting blood (very, very often).
The risk of destroying your stomach with an NSAID if you use it a few days in a month, and no more than the recommended dosage, is low. Usually, well before you would start vomiting blood, you'd get stomach pains and acid reflux. These can be warning signs that your stomach is sensitive to NSAIDs.
Acetaminophen is one of the greatest drugs we have. We have no painkiller with less side effects than acetaminophen has. It's ridiculously safe compared to other painkillers, even to other drugs. It's so safe that a lot of the reported side effects and deaths are due to other active ingredients (think children taking acetaminophen syrups that also contain propylene glycol, which is a lot more toxic).
It won't destroy your stomach or liver if you know how much to take, and is actually the first choice painkiller in many countries. It is way less harsh on your stomach lining than NSAIDs are, and liver damage is rare and usually only occurs at 150mg/kg a day (so, for someone weiging approx. 145 pounds, that would be around 10.5 grams, when the recommended maximum daily intake is 4 grams). Of course if you take your paracetamol with alcohol, you can damage your liver with less, but you shouldn't (routinely) combine any (pain) medication with alcohol, frankly. Additionally, you should always be cautious if you have had, or are suffering from liver disease.
Recommended maximum dosages are:
Acetaminophen: no more than 3000-4000mg per day
Ibuprofen: no more than 1200-1600mg per day
Naproxen: no more than 500-750mg per day
When taking painkillers, make sure the daily dose is equally spaced over the day. If you get stomach complaints after taking NSAIDs, consider taking them with PPIs to protect your stomach lining (such as omeprazole, esomeprazole, pantoprazole). You can take the listed PPIs once or twice daily, up to 80mg per day. Depending on the country you live in they could be available over the counter or on prescription.
It's important to realise that if you regularly need painkillers, let's say for more than 10 days each month, or more than 5 days at a time, that's worth contacting your doctor about.
If you use acetaminophen and NSAIDs incidentally (with or without PPIs), then they're absolutely safe (if you didn't already have a gastric ulcer, liver problems, you don't take them with (large) amounts of alcohol, or other medication that damages your stomach lining). But if you need them (near) daily, then you should seek medical advice, to make sure you don't destroy your stomach and liver, definitely, but also to figure out if there's an underlying cause.
It's not recommended to use acetaminophen or ibuprofen daily, but I think it's important to realise that there are many people in the world that are prescribed acetaminophen or NSAIDs for (near) daily use, and that many of these people use them for years on end, and they don't all succumb to liver failure or vomiting up their own blood.
The most important thing is being informed. Not scared. Informed.

You are not oppressed when you can demand someone say a specific word and if they do not speak as you tell them to, you will have their life destroyed and everything taken from them.
Pretty sure he is the same one who also went to jail for it too?
Anyways, things like this fuel genuine burning hatred where tolerance once existed, its not doing anyone any favors.
Wherever you look in the world these days, there is a judiciary that is essentially out of control... or rather, controlled by the radical left.
And it all started with “ we just want to be treated equal “ .
It’s still there. Do you want to be misgendered?

a radical leftist teacher who would behave exactly the same would also be facing these fines
I’m not sure what you mean
it means the person wasn't fined and jailed for misgendering, but for contempt of court after he ignored a court injuction when he was suspended from the school and still showed up to badger people
if a radical leftist teacher would do something to get suspended, still keep showing up and ignore a court injuction, they would be facing the same punishment, is what i mean
(more directed towards the previous commenters than towards you)

“If a federal law enforcement officer takes action, with or without awaiting guidance from Johns Hopkins legal and/or public safety personnel, it is important that you do not intervene, as obstructing or otherwise interfering with certain government activity can be a crime,” the memo reads.
hmm I wonder what that “certain government activity might be”? seems kind of important "It instructs employees not to obstruct the officers’ activities or block their movement in any facility. Additionally, employees are instructed not to notify the person who is being sought by federal law enforcement officials.
Employees were also told not to 'engage in any behavior in an effort to enable them to leave the premises or hide.'" elite universities were never our allies
