Healthcare is a basic human right. (Under-diagnosed rural she) (attempting to learn and grow) (struggling greatly) (feeling out-of-place most of the time) 😷

When I was younger and going through hard times, I’d console myself that the world was getting better and soon I’d be okay too

When I got older and saw the world going through hard times, I’d console myself that I was getting better and soon everyone else would be okay too

Now, I feel neither 😐

Hey maybe we all agree we don't make vulnerable girls punchlines, even it's to make political points, huh?

Canada needs women's health chair, says IWK Foundation | CBC News The IWK Foundation is calling on the federal government to create a national chair who will focus on women's health.

"The system has been created with the assumption that the male is the standard norm and the female is atypical," Gillivan said. "It's not. We're just a different human with different needs."

If you are on PEI squawking about how much of the island Buddhist Monks & Nuns own but you are not squawking about how much of the island the Irving family owns then what you are squawking about is skin color, not land use.

Hope this helps.

This is peak capitalism.

This is peak evil.

This is peak systems operating as they were intended.

This is NOT incompetence. It is the opposite.

Govt did not accidentally enrich their friends with 'oops we destroyed the lives of the vulnerable populations' on the side.

It is purposeful policy.

My dad trained as a neurosurgeon in the late β€˜50s and they were still studying the long term neurological effects of the Spanish flu.

Also, at the rates Harvard charges students, there should never be a need for fundraising of any variety, never mind fundraising from known creeps.

Academia is such a shining example of how capitalism fails the average human.

No, not understandable.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE NICE TO PEDOPHILES EVEN IF IT IS TO USE THEIR MONEY.

YOU DO NOT NEED MONEY/ FAVORS FROM PEDOS.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE "IN FREQUENT TOUCH" WITH PEDOPHILES.

Maybe it's from being poor, but you don't need ill-gotten gains, be they yours or someone else's.

Tell the truth - especially to the powers that be.

You do not have to comply in advance (or at all).

Tax the rich - they're hoarding basic human needs.

Tax the rich and fund healthcare, postal services, schools & housing.

Tax the rich and improve society.

Tax the rich - they can afford it.

Tax the rich - there's enough food for everyone.

Tax the rich - they're hoarding basic human needs.

I guess even an attempt at holding power to account is worth something.

Mind you, I can't imagine any repercussions negatively affecting boris' existence.

Just like dennis king fucked off with a lovely pension & Ireland placement after willingly letting seniors die and kids get covid in schools.

Medicine: "We wish patients were more engaged in care."

Patient: Comes organized with top 3 symptoms, conditions already ruled out, relevant imaging and testing conducted,...

Medicine: "It appears that you are hyperfixated on your symptoms and spend too much time on Google. Dx: psychosomatic."

Going places when sick is a big part of the problem.

We need to, as a society, stop rewarding people for being in public spaces when they are sick.

We need to, as a society, start rewarding people for staying home when sick. We need paid sick days. We need to better use tech to work remotely.

Arguably, the ppl in healthcare refusing to mask won't let themselves admit to wrongdoings/ poor decisions at this stage because it means they would have to admit to the damage they caused innocent people, very likely including the babies and seniors in their own families.

I've just received access to healthcare for the 1st time in 10 years, so to say I'm disappointed that I didn't die for the last decade only to let my brand-new healthcare team not give a flying fuck about an ongoing airborne pandemic is an understatement only matched by society's downplay of covid.

In general public, I have an appreciation for ppl having different comprehensions of a global pandemic, effects of it, and preventative methods.

When I enter a healthcare building filled with workers who paid crazy money to receive scientific enducations, I expect them to make better choices.

"Let's get to work" at the bottom of his statement is killing my soul.

Listen, Robert, you privileged little brat, SOME OF US HAVE BEEN WORKING THIS ENTIRE TIME.

Most of us can't afford time off. Most of us can't afford housing.

Get to work on that - I dare you.

PEI Green party is a privileged, expensive-suit-wearing, classist pile of nothingburgers.

Way to only help/ care about the ruling class.

Working class Islanders deserve much better than these hateful, self-serving white men that we keep having to choose between.

It is unsurprisingly disgusting how little "health" and "care" exist inside the realm of healthcare.

In such an ableist world, you'd think prevention of illness would be a high priority.... but it seems blaming individuals for their own sickness is easier for the ruling class.

No idea where I put my will to live.

Probably lost it in this patriarchal hellscape fueled by capitalism, racism, fascism, and ableism that we call a society while not doing anything to benefit the masses.

Slowly being killed, knowing we don't have to be like this, is difficult to reconcile.

If someone told me voting for Robert Mitchell would prevent my own murder, I still would never vote for this entitled white man who seems to want back into politics for...... more money? More power? More authority? More bullying of the most vulnerable populations? More "help" to offer corporations?

I could file a complaint, but there is no accountability for authority.

HealthPEI knowing about a legitimately dangerous problem in their realm has shown as much promise for accountability and/or change as cops or the catholic church.

The systems weren't designed to defend/ help vulnerable ppl.

Attempting to receive healthcare shouldn't make you sick.

Attempting to receive healthcare should involve healthcare workers following basic safety rules.

Attempting to receive healthcare should involve science and data.

Attempting to receive healthcare should involve respect.

If Health PEI has a mandatory masking rule, but the receptionist is unmasked, the nurse told you "I lost my mask so you can take yours off", and the doctor is wearing a baggy mask that is not N-95, does Health PEI have a mandatory masking rule?
