Also wants to know if Ryan White should be allowed around other children. Even though Tom Price is no longer stinking up Congress or the Department of Health and Human Services with that awful jet-fuel smell, there's still a Price in a position to do terrible things to healthcare, at least on the state level. The disgraced HHS head's wife, Betty Price, is a Georgia state representative as well as a medical doctor, and shared some thoughts in a Tuesday meeting of the House Study Committee on Georgians' Barriers to Access to Adequate Health Care. Mostly, she would like to see
"We’ll just predict the committee will update the law to allow people with HIV to engage in intercourse only while in a licensed biohazard containment facility, which must then be launched by rocket into the Sun."
I don't have HIV, but that sounds like a great way to end one's life 😂😂😂
I just found out that TWO of my favorite scientists are gross Islamophobes, and one of them is glad Richard Spencer gets speaking gigs because "free speech," so I'm done for the week.
(Yes, they are both straight white men, how did you know?)
That's the story where the sick man can't get to Jesus because of the crowds, so his friends lower him down through a hole in the ground! Love that one.
Or men who insist on having sex bareback. The numbers of new cases are not decreasing, last time I checked. HIV is not curable, but it is preventable, and yes, I am blaming the victims.
My mum is a nurse- well, a nurse practitioner now (go Mum!) she works in A&E.
I'd say that the great British public have a lot of respect for nurses, but this isn't reflected in their pay. Which is a disgrace. The top of the pay scale for a 'normal' nurse is £28500* (37600 dollars). The gvt have capped public sector pay for years now (most of the reason I now teach in the Middle East) and many nurses have suffered significant financial hardship as a result.
*of course, they do get the usual holidays and benefits as everyone else in the UK. Plus overtime. And if you work as a bank nurse (filling in for absences and shortages) you can earn more.

(Guillotine also too 😵)
Too bad they don't allow comments 😇
I stopped listening to NPR last winter when they jumped on the "both sides" train to Trumptown.
Fuck you, NPR.

My crazy conservative anti-evolution aunt has a degree in geology. I DON'T KNOW EITHER.
I thought they were being very rude to the pathologist in Midsomer until I remembered that they call surgeons "Mr" in the UK.
That might change soon if Theresa May and her lot keep kicking all the brown people out. Britain's gonna need nurses BAD.
readily = quickly

Yes.
Ha! And consultants too. They spend all that time and effort to be a Dr and then become a Mr again. Weird tradition. I used to know why.
This made me laugh out loud. Thank you.
Applebee's?
Betty Price is bad at simple math. Quarantining aids patients would costs millions. Free condoms would cost the states pennies per condom
