I knew better than to give thee companies my DNA but of course I've had family give it to them. I suppose if I was wanted for an unsolved murder I'd be a bit concerned, but I'm still not happy that anyone's DNA is compromised that I'm associated with.
The question to me is what's the play with that data. I'd assume they would have a use for it if they went to the trouble of stealing it. I suspect in the future this will be lucrative data, but what's the play right now??
I work as a hospital supervisor. I honestly don't know of any facility where you can't get saline iv flushes. Most nurses have pockets full of them each shift. If you didn't have that for some reason you could get sterile saline and draw it up yourself, also would be easily obtainable.
My only thought here is that the person didn't want to leave the room when administering drugs and so they used tap water as an easily sourced replacement for the drugs they was stealing since there is a sink is every room (at least in most hospital rooms).
The real answer here is that drug addiction overrides rational thought and they either didn't know or didn't care that tap water is not safe at all for iv administration.
We see lots of cases of diversion unfortunately because these drugs are just so damn addictive and there are only so many safe guards you can put in place to protect against it. At the end of the day no matter how many checks there are you will eventually have a clinical staff member drawing up the drugs and administering it. As long as this remains the case you will have people that abuse that weak link in the chain.
Only so much you can do when you have to source your information from the dickheads that trump surrounded himself with.
ERs have been treating patients in the hallway since ERs have existed.
I'd agree with you but then you hear about all the sketch shit with the discord and the volunteers. I think they intended to make a game but planned for it to just be a quick cash grab and then they could just slowly dump it. It's honestly a great strategy, just look at every game the atlas devs have made. They've basically mastered the strategy.
This was a scam from the start. They fucked themselves because their trailer was popular and they promised the world. Their goal was to create a shit early access game with pre-made assets, get lots of buy in when it was released, endure some bad reviews, promise to fix things but then slowly dump support for the game. I've watched this exact thing happen probably ten times now.
What killed them was the hype and popularity. They were called out immediately for what they were doing and got stuck having to now make an actual game or face legal repercussions.
At the very least these cash grabs are getting spotted early and they're not getting to sneak by without facing consequences.
And as long as people like me have a heartbeat we will crucify shit dicks like that until they flip their accounts private and cry about needing a safespace.
I just went back and reviewed the list of all his past work. He has done so much amazing shit. One of those actors that was in everything and elevated all the stuff he was in even if he wasn't the lead. Tragic loss.
So it depends on the setting and patient. Kids tend to have respiratory causes of cardiac arrest so the focus is more on airway management and positive pressure ventilation. Kids don't generally code just out of nowhere like say a 90 year old might keel over. There's usually a specific cause and if you can correct that cause they will rebound.
As for adults it's about the setting. Outside of the hospital we should be teaching cpr only. Especially for lay people. It gets too complicated and they're too stressed out to remember 30 and 2, 15 and 2. Plus most people have a reserve of air in their airway and lungs that gets circulated with compressions so focusing too much on trying to get breaths in causes too many delays and confusion.
Now for ems you can debate whether they should do cpr only with a non rebreather, a bls airway and bagging, a biad, or a definitive airway. It hugely depends on your protocols, provider availability, and who the patient is.
In hospital we are almost always going to secure the airway during a code to remove that from the equation. We have the resources and it can be done relatively quickly without the need to delay cpr for more than a pulse check in many cases.
So I've done lots of cpr. First off it's kind of a misconception that you'll break ribs from cpr. You are more likely to break cartilage than actually break bones and appropriate cpr isn't going to break bones unless they're the smallest most frail person and the individual doing cpr is going crazy doing compressions.
Even if you break ribs you're probably not going to have a displaced rib fracture as there's muscles and tissue holding those bones in place, it's pretty rare to have ribs break so bad they risk puncturing organs and it usually involves catastrophic trauma, not what you get from cpr.
The bigger criticism against Rockstar is as they swing for the fences they're building the framework to effectively heard western children in like cattle so they can milk them for a generation using their online service.
I can't wait for the collaboration with Fannie Mae where your 26 percent interest rate comes with 50000 shark card points.
We use uv light stands in the hospital. We will shut down a room and run a uv sanitizer for a bit. It works in some instances but it's not exactly something you can just leave running all the time. Everyone would probably have a sick tan tho.. To go with their skin cancer..
