    nursej22 replied to RitzyCinnamonRoll's topic in General Nursing

    In my short time as a TB nurse, I saw 2 meningeal cases (1 kiddo), a miliary/disseminated case and loss of a kidney due to GU TB. All had BCG as infants so thought they were protected. Nasty

    good soggy morning. It's been raining, a lot. Low level flooding is predicted this evening at high tide. The dogs have been resistant to going outside, so there have been accidents, sigh. I went with...

    Yeah, I don't see myself thinking about dating. I only dated one other person before dh. He and I married at age 19. I've felt "hit on" when playing table games in casinos, and that creeps me out....

    hi. We got MiL home. She is still very tired, hoping she can rest better at home. Promised she will turn off her phone. She is pumped full of albuterol and prednisone, so fingers crossed. We stopped...

    nursej22 replied to RitzyCinnamonRoll's topic in General Nursing

    Are you saying then that BCG is not a vaccine? It is given worldwide to prevent TB disease, especially miliary and meningeal TB in children. Depending on locale, it is 50-80% effective in preventing...

    What caught your attention in the world today?

    nursej22 replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Why did you ask TMB how many diplomas were sold? Your question seems to indicate that the amount is significant. The article very clearly states that is not all she is doing. I don't see how you...

    In my reading of the article, it would be difficult to identify how many diplomas have been sold, as these schools are not tracked by the state board of education. Is there a permissible number? There...

    I was reading an article about potential vice presidents yesterday. I'm on my phone and can't find it now. But it got me thinking, what if Trump doesn't choose a running mate? He can't fire them, and...
