It sucks shit when you think about it like that, doesn’t it? But that’s exactly what we’re doing: Selling the better parts of our lives for a pittance.
And who the hell is making 13 an hour anyways? Not a lot of us.
If you think that that’s fucked up (’cause it, like, is), the way to get better wages, hours, and conditions is with a union! Join a union and learn how to organize your own workplace over at https://iww.org
USA: ‘Ellen cries from her mansion while Trump supporters gather en masse to protest their goveners trying to keep them alive even if it means having a bunch of morons voting in winter’
America, you in danger girl. Hope you lot can figure it out.
A malaria drug widely touted by President Donald Trump for treating the new coronavirus showed no benefitin a large analysis of its use in U.S. veterans hospitals. There were more deaths among those given hydroxychloroquine versus standard care, researchers reported.
…
Researchers analyzed medical records of 368 male veterans hospitalized with confirmed coronavirus infection at Veterans Health Administration medical centers who died or were discharged by April 11.
About 28% who were given hydroxychloroquine plus usual care died, versus 11% of those getting routine care alone. About 22% of those getting the drug plus azithromycin died too, but the difference between that group and usual care was not considered large enough to rule out other factors that could have affected survival.
Hydroxychloroquine made no difference in the need for a breathing machine, either.
Researchers did not track side effects, but noted hints that hydroxychloroquine might have damaged other organs. The drug has long been known to have potentially serious side effects, including altering the heartbeat in a way that could lead to sudden death.
Earlier this month, scientists in Brazil stopped part of a hydroxychloroquine study after heart rhythm problems developed in one-quarter of people given the higher of two doses being tested.
Share this info with your smooth-brained family & friends and make sure to let them know that we experimented on veterans to get it, ok?
