Creeknigga:
My own problem is with PHED.
They came to disconnect light and went directly to the pole to disconnect my cable without asking if I have paid.
After I showed them my receipt they said they have already disconnected the light that I'll have to pay them 2k to reconnect it.
But op, why is the site not entirely in English?
Yes. The distros feel like electricity is their own personal property. They do as they like with no one checking them.

PoliticsDefunding The WHO - The Right Move? by JimD(op): 11:44am On May 02, 2020
Here's an article by Jamie Metzl of the WHO

President Donald Trump has legitimate reasons to be angry the World Health Organization didn't stop the COVID-19 crisis. We all do.

Imagine what would have happened last December, when the first evidence of the coronavirus crisis emerged in China, if the WHO had a robust pathogen surveillance system in place? When the first tripwire of an outbreak was hit, a fully resourced WHO expert task force would have flown directly to Wuhan, paying scant attention to any objections from Beijing. Using their emergency powers, they would have immediately exposed the Chinese cover-up and worked aggressively with local authorities to squelch the outbreak.

If the virus still spread, the WHO would have led governments around the world in a coordinated effort to stop it. Its coordinated and consistent global messaging would have countered in real time the dangerous misinformation coming from national leaders in Beijing, Washington and Brasilia. In that alternate world, over a hundred thousand people who have now died from COVID-19 would still be alive and the WHO would now be studying lessons learned to be better prepared for the next pandemic.

Some people might think we already have a World Health Organization empowered to do whatever it takes to protect us in this way. But we don't.

Established in 1948, the WHO is, according to its founding document, "the directing and coordinating authority on international health work."

On paper.

In reality, the organization is underfunded, understaffed and under-empowered by states. It can't make countries do much of anything and doesn't control how most of its own budget is spent. It doesn't have the power to force nations to accept emergency response teams, reliably report on outbreaks or even pay their dues. It doesn't have anything approximating an ability to forcefully direct a coordinated global response to a deadly pathogenic crisis.

That's why, for all our sakes, we need a stronger WHO, not a weaker one. It's why cutting off U.S. funding to the WHO in the middle of the worst pandemic in a century is the height of self-defeating lunacy.

Imperfect as it is, the World Health Organization remains the international organization most essential to helping us through this crisis. Viruses do not respect national borders, and no country can expect to get through this crisis on its own. The virus will incubate wherever it is given free rein.

But saying that we need the WHO now more than ever does not at all mean we can't be critical of it. While we're at it, we should also be rigorously examining the massive failures of China, the United States and others.

Just as we wouldn't imagine having a plane crash and not immediately trying to figure out what happened, we can't let the COVID-19 crisis unfold without urgently understanding how our systems have so spectacularly failed.

There are plenty of fingers to point, and we must thoughtfully point them now, at all of us, for our own good. For all we know, a new and even worse pandemic could begin even before we have overcome this one.

Whatever the origins of the outbreak, including the possibility of an accidental leak from the Chinese virology lab in Wuhan, China's dangerous and ongoing information suppression activities are the foundations of this crisis. We have to find out fast where and how this outbreak began.

The WHO could have raised hell when China denied access to WHO experts for those critical early weeks, did not need to initially parrot Chinese propaganda and could certainly have sounded the alarm earlier. We have to ask how we can help the WHO do better.

The United States had all the information it needed by January to mount a massive response, but Trump actively undermined the findings of his own intelligence and health officials. Worse, he passed misinformation to the American people that potentially led to many thousands of deaths. We've got to ask why this happened.

Until we get to the bottom of all these failures and work to fix them, we remain dangerously susceptible to the next pandemic.

We are all on the same plane with a shared interest in not letting it crash. Suspending funding to the WHO is like shooting the pilot.

Rather than undermining the WHO at this time of intense need, the United States should be working closely with allies and partners around the world to strengthen the WHO and enhance collaboration for our mutual benefit.

Let's work together to safely land the plane.

Do you think president Trump was right to de-fund the WHO? Especially since America is the major funder for the WHO

HealthRe: White Tongue After Unprotected Sex: Please Doctors In The House I Need Your Help by JimD(m): 8:24am On Apr 15, 2020
Seems like advanced e.Coli infection. A sexual infection (likely gonorrhea) has weakened your immune system and made you susceptible to e.Coli...

Its mostly because you have bad eating habits (typical of marijuana smokers)...

Some of these would be the other symptoms
- Dehydration (this is why you lose weight)
- severe watery diarrhea
- bloody urine
- fatigue
- pale skin (might be a reason for pale tongue)

If left untreated for long, it could damage the kidney... Go for medical check asap.

So herbs is going to cure a virus that has a thick lipid shell huh

Anybody who believes herbs are some sort of wonder to man is seriously deluded, for bacteria and fungi they could be suggested but come on, a virus that hijacks your very DNA you want to be chewing some fruits to get rid of?

The skin of the virus alone is resistant to the greatest heat your body uses to kill most invaders, and the bats the virus came from it's body temperature is several times hotter than a human. (That's why soap and 70% alcohol are the best deterrents, they corrode it's lipid layer and they are useless without it.)

Who did this to Nigeria? An immune system needs viral samples in it's inventory to recognise what it's fighting against you dummies! That's why scientists are working on finding live vaccines.
And who told you vaccines cure a viral infection. They only reduce your chances of infection by 30-50%.

Dude. Read the text before commenting hogwash. Nobody is talking about cure. Its about boosting immunity. So your body fights the virus. Once your body fights the virus, you become naturally immune to it.
