“Falsehood flies, and truth comes limping after it, so that when men come to be undeceived, it is too late; the jest is over, and the tale hath had its effect: […] like a physician, who hath found out an infallible medicine, after the patient is dead.” —Jonathan Swift

9·1 day ago“We should take Munich, and push it somewhere else!”
The fact she was on the ship is by its self a reason to test for it
Did you even read the full quote? By the time her tests were back in 24 hours, she probably would’ve been on death’s door had she still been on the ship. They clearly got her hospital care as soon as they landed, and I seriously doubt they were sending her home.
I’m sorry, but the fact you’re calling it “Hanta Virus” tells me I should trust the doctors/epidemiologists and Spain’s health minister more than I trust some rando on the Internet spitballing “well they should’ve just done [thing]!!” Her condition began deteriorating literally on the evacuation plane, and she seemingly got care basically as soon as possible.
I’m anxious you decided to take the out-of-context headline of an article you didn’t read and run with it:
“They were not thinking that these symptoms were compatible with hantavirus. Why? Because what she was telling [them] was [that she had] an episode of coughing some days ago that had disappeared, and what she was having at that moment was kind of like stress or anxiety or nervousness. So it was not catalogued [as hantavirus],” [Spanish health minister] Padilla said.
[Padilla] said the woman, who had been travelling on the ship at the centre of a deadly hantavirus outbreak, had been suffering flu-like symptoms but they appeared to be getting better and she did not have a fever.
He said that the woman’s condition had deteriorated between the ship and the plane. “It is not that the patient was feeling bad and she was saying: ‘OK, I’m not going to say anything because I want to be on the plane.’ It was like: ‘OK, we have measured your temperature, it was not fever, afterwards you have been on the plane, it has taken off, you have started feeling bad, we have measured your temperature and it was fever.’”
Padilla said passengers could not have been tested onboard the vessel because there were no rapid PCR tests for hantavirus available. Any testing would have involved flying samples to Madrid to a specialist lab, a process that would have taken 24 hours. Those delays would have made it impossible to rescue those on board due to a forecast of extremely high winds from Monday evening, which were due to be “hell” on Tuesday, he said.

World News@lemmy.world•French woman was told by doctors hantavirus symptoms were just anxietyEnglish
42·2 days agoIf you’d actually read the article instead of jumping straight from the headline to the funny quip you thought of:
Why? Because what she was telling [them] was [that she had] an episode of coughing some days ago that had disappeared, and what she was having at that moment was kind of like stress or anxiety or nervousness. So it was not catalogued [as hantavirus],” [Spanish health minister] Padilla said.
This doesn’t sound like a discrimination thing; she literally described a cough that went away days ago and an anxiety she was feeling.
? He’s dressed as a yellow supercar. What do you mean?
How the shit is this supposed to be “programmer humor”? Comms really do return to the lowest common denominator if they aren’t actively moderated for relevance; jesus christ.

OP isn’t evidently in a healthy state of mind. They just took down(?) a second NoStupidQuestions post stating they had an NDA keeping them from whistleblowing on crimes of the US federal government and needed advice.

2·4 days agoSure thing, OP. Good luck with that. I’m glad you’ve wisely decided, as normal whistleblowers do, to create a Lemmy account yesterday called “ElonMuskLovesIsrael” so you can shitpost about how you hate American liberals between bouts of publicly agonizing over whether to blow the whistle on nondescript crimes of the US federal government.

1·5 days agoBecause we need to simplify the world until a single person is solely responsible for all of our problems. Complexity feels bad and scary, and we don’t like that.
Straight-up reminds me of Dan Olsen’s video about fucking QAnon disguised as a Flat Earth video. “Donald Trump personally wrote Jeffrey Epstein’s suicide note” is baseless QAnon-level shit that people upvoting will justify with “but other crazy things are happening, so I don’t have to ground anything I believe in reality anymore.”
