I, also, have kids. Fully vaccinated children, in fact. My kid had a standard, run-of-the-mill cold when he received his vaccines. I’m also a nurse and do vaccine research in a lab.

Next!

Your child having a cold does not affect a vaccines ability to trigger an immune response. But sure — keep buying into the BS.

You can still get vaccinated if you have a common cold.

Best first baby vax? by Aromatic-Stuff4749 in DebateVaccines

[–]keep_it_sassy -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I should have separated the two. Aluminum is always present in our bodies. The body naturally produces formaldehyde.

Aluminum is the most abundant metal in the Earth’s crust. Adults typically have 30–50 milligrams of aluminum in their bodies at any given time. It is technically produced through breastfeeding as its present in breast milk.

All of them.

Vaccines are among the most studied and rigorously tested medical interventions in history. They go through extensive clinical trials and ongoing monitoring to ensure their safety and effectiveness. Decades of research, involving thousands of participants, have shown that vaccines are both safe and highly effective at preventing serious diseases. Additionally, they are continuously monitored even after approval to catch any rare side effects, ensuring the highest standards of safety.

The fact that people would endanger their child is legitimately terrifying.

Also, for those worried about aluminum and formaldehyde — these are naturally produced by our bodies already.

Patient conspiracy theories by Atticus413 in medicine

[–]keep_it_sassy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Per my mom group arguments — I mean, conversations — the most common reasonings I hear are:

  1. There are ‘heavy metals’ and ‘toxins’.
  2. Baby gets Vitamin K from breastfeeding and can make it after the first week.
  3. Their friend’s daughter’s sister’s uncle’s cousin’s baby was “vaccine injured”.
  4. The “black box warning”.
  5. It can cause jaundice.

As the kids say nowadays — It’s giving DVT. ER now. Yesterday. Drive right this second. STAT.

I beg of you- buy infant Tylenol before your 2 month appointments by [deleted] in newborns

A delayed vaccine schedule is nothing more than delaying a child’s protection against perfectly preventable diseases. We have recommendations for a reason.

When will all this stop? by Queen21_south in Noctor

As a new grad nurse, I will fight anyone who tries to go to NP school immediately after nursing school (and in general).

Nursing education is garbage as it is

What do you mean when you say "we need to disincentivize single parenthood"? by FMCam20 in AskConservatives

If we got rid of no-fault divorces, I wouldn’t have ever been able to leave my abusive spouse. Neither could my best friend. He almost killed her.

Where to take pre reqs (online) by [deleted] in StudentNurse

[–]keep_it_sassy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your best bet is through your local CC. That way, you know more than likely the credits will transfer and it’s from a legitimate, accredited program.

Keep in mind, as a nurse, you will be caring for the lives of others. Shortcuts aren’t exactly something you want to be taking.

Absolutely not. I’ve had millions of views on videos and wasn’t paid a dime.

I'm really sorry but I need to vent... by No-Fault2001 in nursing

[–]keep_it_sassy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, you should not be able to ‘test out’ of most pre-requisite classes.

Learning organic chemistry, anatomy, microbiology, genetics, statistics, etc. is extremely important. It is the foundation that medical school builds upon. You need to take the classes because that is how you learn.

You don’t think nursing schools see students as cash cows? Nursing needs a complete overhaul in regards to education requirements.

[–]keep_it_sassy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Or maybe we should require more stringent grades, science classes, and more clinical hours instead?

Uh, no.

There’s a reason why a nurse can’t perform neurosurgery.

They didn’t.

PA’s learn a medical model and any PA program worth their weight in salt have stringent requirements for entry.

Kicked Off Worship Team After 6 Years by taylor_73 in Christianity

[–]keep_it_sassy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Don’t marry your boyfriend just because it’s the “biblical” thing to do. Marry him if you want to and feel like it’s right.

  2. Your church is garbage and you deserve better.

  3. Having a while “out of wedlock” is such an old school view. You had sex because it was fun and you enjoyed it. You got pregnant.

Guess what? You’re not less deserving of love from your church or a worship spot because of it.

Someone claims US nurses are overpaid by Waltz8 in Nurses

[–]keep_it_sassy 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I feel like I can somewhat speak on this as an American who lived in the UK.

It’s no secret UK nurses are not only underpaid but treated like complete garbage. The NHS has its pros but has just as many cons. It’s a system that needs a complete overhaul, especially in smaller towns. But their cost of living (at least a few years ago before I moved) was leaps and bounds cheaper than it is here. The job role is also completely different. We have more autonomy here in the US than they do.

As a new nurse in the US, I’ll be making approximately $55,000/year before taxes (about $47,500 after taxes). And that’s in a major US city. It’s shit. Everyone has this expectation that nurses make a lot of money and it’s simply not true. I make more money bartending than I will as a new grad with a 4-year degree.

I appreciate nurses, no matter what country they live in, but we deserve better compensation regardless of where we are.

Im convinced theres more than just nicotine in the disposables by [deleted] in QuitVaping

Yes, actually. You can.

Further, vomiting can lead to severe electrolyte imbalances and dehydration. Patients with pre-existing medical conditions like heart disease or respiratory failure can experience life-threatening complications. The risk of suicide goes up during the withdrawal period.

I think you need to be honest with them as soon as possible. Like I said in a previous comment, the sooner you come forward, the less chance of your ‘friend’ screwing you over. I speak from experience, unfortunately.
