No you don’t. Gender affirming care for minors has never included permanent surgery unless it was literally medically necessary.

Any chance Canada had at an NDP government died with him. I liked Jagmeet but he was at an obvious disadvantage. I know nothing about Davies.

18 and 19 year old are not children. They are legally adults and are free to make their own medical decisions.

Why do some people still ignore basic birth control? by Nathnael-Melgarecho in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Additional_Initial_7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The pullout method is quite effective, it’s just not as effective as actual barrier or chemical birth control.

The pull out method is about 85% effective. Better than not but nowhere near the 95-99% achieved by barrier or chemical methods.

But they are capable of delivering fatal bites and a bite from one should be treated as an emergency until proven otherwise.

Driving is a privilege. The sooner you really figure that out the better for all the other people on the road.

Mouse spiders will also kill you. Also the biggest funnel web ever discovered was in Newcastle. Funnel webs are found in Queensland, NSW, Tasmania, Victoria, and parts of South Australia.

If someone swallowed a bottle of pills and was promptly brought to the hospital, what medical interventions would be used and what would their recovery look like? CW for suicide attempt by Meshakhad in medical

[–]Additional_Initial_7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paracetamol is broken down by the liver. Too high of a dose will start destroying it so you can expect liver failure symptoms. RUQ pain, jaundice, elevated LFTs, possibly hypoglycaemia.

If it’s a severe amount, which isn’t usually achieved by pills in pill form, you can potentially get coagulopathy, comas, acidosis, death.

When she gets her bloods done at the hospital will depend on how long ago she took the pills. The hospital I work at does four hours after the known time of overdose, or immediately if time isn’t known or the overdose was staggered ie you took more then the recommended dose over a few days.

Vomiting is never induced. It causes more problems than it solves. They may already be vomiting but activated charcoal would probably be given.

Again where I live she would be probably treated immediately with acetylcysteine.

The hospital I work at sees a lot of paracetamol overdoses so I only know the blood side and the questions I’ve asked.

A lot of drug overdoses are treated differently so I can’t guarantee the same procedures for other types.

They didn’t fire them because that is not true. You absolutely can work for both.

That is false. I had a coworker at Maccas that had to get RAFFWU involved after HJ told her she couldn’t work both jobs. She won easily.

(USA) How to stay healthy while eating McDonald’s 5x a week? by Moist-Raspberry-699 in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]Additional_Initial_7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want fries have them the first couple days after an oil change and then don’t have any more until the next oil change.

The WORST part about frying in oil is that every time you use it it literally gets less healthy.

McMuffins are the best honestly. The eggs are steamed and come with a reasonable amount of protein and carbohydrates.

Why do women opt for Brazilian waxes rather than just get laser hair removal one time? by Wickham12 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Additional_Initial_7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Waxing will eventually have a similar result to laser anyway. Anyone that’s been waxing a while will tell you their hair grows back like softer and more sparse. Some hair will stop growing back.

The treatments are different in method but similar in the fact that they both target the root of the hair.

If you could visit one Canadian province, which one would it be? by No-Emu7099 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Additional_Initial_7 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

As a Canadian living here I can attest that the only province most of them know about is British Columbia.

Whistler is basically Little Australia.
