@skinnylatte maybe drinking raw milk will help?

@skinnylatte Women can't even be taken seriously in an outbreak.
@kimlockhartga @skinnylatte YEAHHHH, I cracked up into neither quite laughing nor crying seeing the top post because it’s the complete, unmitigated, ad-absurdum proof that no matter the circumstances, a woman’s account of her own experiences MUST be assumed to be inaccurate.
-
@skinnylatte ah yes of course. I hope she wasn't also overweight, cause that's when they just send you home without even listening to you
@stephanie @skinnylatte If you aren’t, they insist you “look too healthy” to be sick or injured. There’s no winning condition if they first diagnose you with female, just one angle comes with moralizing false concern and the other with patronizing “praise.”

@skinnylatte Paramedics wheel a woman into the ER with half her arm missing after a traumatic amputation and the doctor says “Well, it’s a start, but I’d like you to lose a little more weight.“

@prism @skinnylatte We didn't finish the last one yet...

@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 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. -

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?

@skinnylatte Oh, shit. I read that headline and chuckled at what the Onion came up with today. Then I saw that it wasn't the Onion.
@ZenHeathen @skinnylatte same here !

@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...

@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 -
@skinnylatte Close enough. Welcome back, 1400s.
