Woman gets hantavirus, told by doctors it's probably anxiety

@skinnylatte Now she’s in critical condition. I don’t know much about the virus, but maybe had they started defensive measure it wouldn’t have gotten to this point.

@skinnylatte A classic

@skinnylatte and then us French people dare say our country is the birthplace of human rights (thanks Lafayette)…
Human and man, in most cases, are the same word in French. It’s like misogyny is deeply rooted in French society or something.

@skinnylatte I'm feeling anxious

So although she had tested positive for #hantavirus and had been coughing, the coughing got better and she had no fever.

Should the doctors then have told her she had acute hantavirus and to prepare for the worst?

How is that a sensible diagnosis, and how would that have helped?

@PuppyFromLosAndes no doubt a french doctor could do that but to be fair it seems here we have several doctors from different countries (or maybe only spanish, I don't know). And seeing messages under the post, sounds like every doctors in the world learned at the same school...

@psoul @skinnylatte on the other hand it was the doctor on board the ship, so the sécu is safe.

@skinnylatte
It is a very damaging bias that when a woman reports symptoms every thing is written down to hysterics
that drags us back to the 1800’s
