Who the fuck still thinks history matters? It's the future that matters and they own it already because everyone else is too afraid to physically stop them.
If he was is a third rate care home where he belongs instead of the office of POTUS I would say its good for him. As it is he is a threat to the entire world with the authority he has.
As a healthcare giver and a person that's had C-diff, it is one if the only infectious diseases that I fear the most. I became septic and had to spend 3 days in the hospital because of it and they had me on 3 different antibiotics to get rid of it.
I think you mean the flag of the US coast guard. It is white with a blue "Great seal" on it. The bit that looks a bit like the us flag is actually an escutcheon, a shield w a blue field and red and white stripes. But no stars and white instead of red outermost stripes. (This has been "Fun with vexillology!")
Trump constantly leaks and the smell that comes off him is putrid... but his cronies have to put on a smile and pretend that grandpa doesn't shit himself.
1) Clostridioides difficile (aka C-diff) is a type of bacteria that lives in the soil and naturally grows in the gut of some people. When the gut bacteria is disrupted, C-diff can overgrow to the point that it crowds out all the good/beneficial bacteria in the gut, and then it releases toxins that cause sickness, including watery/possibly bloody diarrhea (which can happen a dozen times a day), fever, and abdominal pain.
It's also ridiculously easy to reinfect oneself or to infect others because
It's a curse on people who work in healthcare and one of the worst nosocomial infections (an infection picked up while someone is in a healthcare setting like a hospital), to get.
Fun fact: the dry weight of poop is up to 50% pure bacteria. That’s why disrupting the balance is not a minor thing. They literally have a procedure called a fecal transplant (yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like) to get someone’s gut biome back on track because bacteria are so important for our digestive health.
We have a family friend that did some dumb meat diet and this was her outcome.. she had that transplant and its been at least a year and she is STILL messed up.
2) the bacteria is a big grower on any surface someone might have touched with unclean hands. (Or, say, someone has a diarrhea attack while in the shower, and now that tub is contaminated.)
As for what it smells like, the only way I can describe it is that it smells like death. For anyone who's ever taken a walk on an outdoor trail, suddenly smelled something foul and realized that some animal died nearby and has probably been slowly rotting there for weeks, that's what c-diff smells like.
I'm not really qualified to say. I'm a lab person (and not even in the microbiology department), so I don't really have experience working with people who have it or comparing symptoms to other illnesses.
The listed symptoms seem similar, but a nurse or doctor could do a much better job with that. One thing though: someone with a C-diff infection is probably not even going to be able to take a solid shit. The body just can't. So anything solid or semi-solid isn't c-diff.
It doesn’t actually grow on surfaces due to being a facultative anaerobe. Oxygen basically kills it. What does happen however it is forms a huge amount of spores while inside a patient, which are what get released everywhere and what cause subsequent infections
Huh, didn't know that. I know it's a major problem for re-infection, either someone reinfecting themselves or others with contaminated hands, I thought it would also grow on surfaces because I've heard stories of people needing to have pros decontaminate their houses.
But I wasn't a very good microbiology student and haven't worked directly with that stuff in years, so I'm just going off old memories.
I worked one summer monitoring the removal of a landfill. Even with aromatic dampeners positioned throughout the area, it made little difference. What made it worse was the animal rendering plant next door. C-diff still smells worse
I disagree. Death has its own unique smell. Death is more of a low-tone overpowering smell. CDif is much sharper on the nose. It is wildly unique and hard to describe, but I wouldn’t compare it to death.
Mmm indeed. cdiff has more of an oakey aftertaste, with hints of pine and mint. Whereas death is a more aged blend, giving it much more of an earthy tone. 🤔
Let’s not forget about the stark (C) difference in mouth feel, death is cold and oily and coats the back of the tongue where as CDiff is more spicy and mouth forward and kinda hits the nose like horseradish, but worse.

I have no idea what im looking at. Just two guys looking away for a moment and a zooming in on some flags.

I have a hard time believing this isn't AI. Vance's reaction is a dead giveaway. We all know he LOVES the smell.
cre8majic
He should be so used to it that he doesn't even notice it anymore, along with the erosion of any moral code he might have had

Or this is why he takes so many vacations and travels around, can't stand to be near whiffing distance of trump.

I thought he shit himself from the time that he tried to rape that child, and she kicked a pool cue or something wooden up his asshole.

What?! God I hope that actually happened to him.

Wooden tent stake and he had to be airlifted/medivac to hospital. Sacha Riley explains it on YTube and Rump has never denied it
KarateCanine
Thank you.
cre8majic
It was a young man, Sacha Riley, and the only weapon he could find in his army tent was a wooden tent stake. Rump had to be airlifted out.

I said rape that child - I didnt specify sex. Trump has paid out millions to parents of boys he's raped.

and worse, I'm afraid to say

But you said "she kicked" directly after that? Probably where they thought there was clarification needed.

I'm not really qualified to say. I'm a lab person (and not even in the microbiology department), so I don't really have experience working with people who have it or comparing symptoms to other illnesses.

It doesn’t actually grow on surfaces due to being a facultative anaerobe. Oxygen basically kills it. What does happen however it is forms a huge amount of spores while inside a patient, which are what get released everywhere and what cause subsequent infections

I disagree. Death has its own unique smell. Death is more of a low-tone overpowering smell. CDif is much sharper on the nose. It is wildly unique and hard to describe, but I wouldn’t compare it to death.

Mmm indeed. cdiff has more of an oakey aftertaste, with hints of pine and mint. Whereas death is a more aged blend, giving it much more of an earthy tone. 🤔
