Thanks for this.

You are welcome

IghravweIG:
You half the cup of the normal size of dettol for a bucket of water?

If its the big dettol, not even half of the cap sef. If its that small one then I will put 1/2 or 1/3.

I cant imagine somebody pouring a whole cap of dettol into a bucket, unless that bucket is huge

The whole cap is for people who bathe inside an actual bath, it takes a lot of water to fill up a bath

Toks2008:
Your husband getting impatient bawo?

Lol. Instead of the guy to take her to the hospital he's getting impatient

Hmm! Pre-wedding pics hide a lot of things.

If you use a bucket of water to bathe, you only need a few drops of dettol/izal

Any other thing is just like scrubbing your skin with bleach

The "cap" measurements are for people who bathe in a bathtub with so many litres of water

This is your cross for now because wifey have to see it before it will go so that when you begin to feel bossy tomorrow, she will remind you that she married you under this condition (craw-craw body).

Chai, you are wicked

CyberEBOLA:
ONCE HAD THOSE, THIS HELPED ME.
Please take this very seriously, as i am not joking.

1. Stay away from food that contain artificial seasoning, example is KNORR.
Try to eat food without any seasoning for up to one month, i promise you will find me and thank me.
I tried everything i could, yet no difference,
but when i stopped eating food with seasonings, the rashes left.
I later noticed i am allergic to the active ingredients in those seasonings, and the rashes are just my body reacting to them.

So what do you use to season your food now??

Av u tried crusader soap? Though lightens d skin but treats skin problems

Crusader lightens skin?? How?

OoniOfIfe:
midnighter and helpee , you guys made my day

Lol, sometimes I wonder whether There are actual humans on the other end of the conversation.

A physicist is too big to read a medical research paper, even when he is gathering data on hyperbaric chambers. Hai!

Squillaci:
That one na 3rd class mathematician wey dey find work.
Imagine what a mathematician is reduced to? Medical imaging.

A brilliant mathematician, who wants to improve the efficacy of imaging techniques in medicine, will read a doctors paper. You just dont know what youre talking about

Squillaci:
I mathematician need not use a doctor's research paper.
Lol. You wan spoil him hand? After all the abstract math, you him to battle with ordinary statistics.

A mathematician interested in virology, epidemiology or medical imaging will read a doctor's paper.

Squillaci:
Without neuroscience, psychiatry would be no different from religion. Doctors feedback? Of course. Manufacturing companies also need the feedback of retailers/consumers.
Linguistics may seem important to you, but it is very insignificant when compared to the contributions of the physical sciences. Think about were you would be without steel, silicon, nuclear bombs. These advancements were not gotten from "feedbacks".

Do you know what the word "multi-disciplinary" means How can you dissect psychiatry into its constituents when neuroscience itself is made up of elements of psychiatry?

How do we know the effect of chronic pain on a human being without taking their mental health into account? How do we regulate the use of analgesics without medical research?

How do we measure the social effects of psychotic delusion on a schizophrenic patient without a psychiatrist? How do we monitor the actions of anti-psychotic drugs without a doctor?

You are an extremely narrow minded fellow! We use steel and silicon to create iPhones full of the proceeds of decades worth of linguistic research, you are not serious

Squillaci:
Lol. I have uncles who are doctors.
Of course I don't pray for any of my kids to be doctors.
I would want them to a physicists and mathematicians. People who can change the way we do things. Not sitting somewhere impacting very little lives. Imagine 1 doctor to 2000 persons. That's the number of lives a doctor is expected to have an effect on.

No matter how you ignore my comments I'll keep quoting you because you talk absolute rubbish!

A mathematician will still work with and read a doctors research paper! Dont you know what epidemiology is

A radiologist's research paper will always be more useful to a physicist than any stupid comment you will ever write on Nairaland! Go and cure your illiteracy!

samwash:
Yes the song is in Bini language, its a lovely song and I hv downloaded the song.

Wow! thanks a lot

Squillaci:
Hahaha. Even linguist do research.
I am talking about real research. Like the people that come up with the drugs. Or the neuroscientists that help shape the field of psychiatry.
I don't mean research like "effect of olazanpine on bdnf levels".
Scientist my arse.

Yes, and a neuroscientist still liaises with a neurologist, a psychiatrist, a clinical psychologist and a psychiatric nurse for vital clinical information. These people are the bridge between the community and the lab and their contributions are very important.

The people who "come up with the drugs", pharmacologists, still need feedback from clinicians about how well the drug is working in practice so you have no point!

You are just not serious at all!

By the way linguistic research is extremely important! If you knew half as much about science as you claim to, you wouldnt say something so stupid!!

How do we devise new techniques for dyslexic or autistic patients without linguistic research?? How do we write teaching materials for students? How do we communicate public health messages to communities with low literacy rates?? How is it possible for Google to translate hundreds of languages in a matter of seconds, without linguistics

Ignorance is a terrible affliction! Jeez! Your comment just stinks, honestly!

Squillaci:
Because I know many morons doing well as doctors today.
Actually we need the best brains in the sciences in order to move humanity forward. Not medicine.
And then the above average in medicine, law, psychology and other junk professions.
The bright ones would figure out early in life that they can't have much impact as doctors, and would aspire for the more exotic professions.

You dont seem to understand that a doctor is a scientist, first and foremost.

So many doctors go into research and their medical training gives them a more in-depth understanding of how medicines work in clinical practice. They can then go back to the lab and look at ways to combat specific problems

What you are writing here is very short-sighted and ignorant. How can law be a junk profession when ethics concerning how science and technology impact our daily lives are changing every day

Your precious Physicists and chemists will still need lawyers to help them patent their research and contextualise their findings in a changing world...you just dont know what youre saying at all

Well, over the years Nigeria's health system has been under the management of doctors yet our hospitals are nothing to write home about. Those managers in the developed nations are breaking bounds while their hospitals are doing far much better than Nigerian hospitals run by doctors! Of course, it is only natural for some doctors in those developed nations to complain and try to make it appear like the managers are not doing well. However, the results coming from such countries have so far proven that the managers are doing well!

Lol

Those hospitals are doing well because of a huge array of factors, such as money and good government/internal regulation. That they are doing well relative to Nigeria doesnt mean that they are working to their full potential. Doing better than Nigeria is not an achievement

That doesnt mean that leaving a hospital in the hands of a non-medical professional is a good idea. They can make good managers, but that option is not the best for the reasons I have explained.

If they are nothing to write home about its because of bad attitude and not specialist knowledge. Specialist knowledge is extremely important in healthcare management and policy

philip0906:
This is a valid submission. While I did admit in my first post, that outside the shores of Nigeria, Nigerian doctors perform the truth is back home, they see themselves as demi gods.

There are simple diagnosis that doesn't even require out of the world equipments that your Nigerian doctors back home, cannot perform. They only want to be called doctors and seen as Albert Einsteins.

I experienced something like that...I went to the doctor with symptoms and she prescribed me a hotchpotch of drugs including antibiotics instead of ordering a malaria test

My eyes were almost blood red before I could get anti-malarials. But if you walk into a hospital and say you think you have malaria/typhoid they will tell you to stop diagnosing yourself...when i think of it I just marvel...I hope my liver is okay sha

Jman06:
It is not better in anyway! In most developed nations, hospitals are managed by non medical doctors.
The reason is that a hospital is a gathering of different professional groups to serve the patient. When you appoint a Nigerian doctor to head a hospital, he tends to be biased in favor of the doctors (This is worst with those of them that trained in Nigeria, most of those that trained abroad understand how hospitals work and so they usually do better ). The result is a chaotic hospital with the patients at the receiving end. Under such atmosphere, nothing works and the productivity declines. That is the major problem facing our public hospitals.

Hospitals in developed countries are managed by people who are not doctors and they end up creating layers and layers of bureaucracy and stupid rules that don't make my sense because they don't know what they're saying, because they're not doctors!

Doctors and nurses working under managers like that complain about it all the time. A doctor or specialist nurse who understands how policy will affect practice is better than some chap with a management degree who has no idea what is actually involved in effectively treating a patient, timetabling, liaising with suppliers and so on.

The reason developed countries hire those people is to save money and not because it's better.

The bolded is what I'm trying to say. A doctor who is also enlightened will be unconcerned with petty rivalries and will try to balance the needs of staff vs. those of the patients, and try to integrate the roles and skills of all the staff to create a working system.

Any doctor worth his salt knows that he is finished without a solid team of nurses, so he will make sure he respects them. And he knows not to talk to a pharmacist anyhow. And an auxiliary nurse, cleaner and porter all also have his total and utmost respect.

This is to do with bad attitude and lack of professionalism from our indigent doctors, so the problem is not being a doctor but how the doctor sees his role in relation to others.

ola33t:
Then, OP bia, where did you see color printing on glossy paper before independence? That snapped page is from recent time. If that were before independence, would have been at most a sheet of typed paper made from a mechanical typewriter.

Lol, so all information from years ago should be given on the exact original paper it was written on, otherwise it's not real?

See money and the funny thing is that 90% of it will end up in another man's pocket in the name of bride-price

realoscar84:
These days she had been trying to outshine the first lady in any photo outing with the governor that involves all the 3 wives but the first Lady will just locked up n allow her to take vantage position in photo shot after all she know where the real power lies. Obviously she must be very bitter but the deed is done. That's why it's good to have a wife with foresight. Whatever a wife does for husband can never be a waste. Even if he is ungrateful, ur children will benefit it in future. But most of them hardly look beyond their nose.

Chai..lesson learned

betterview3:
Yes, I have been placed on the bed and examined several times by pressing my abdomen to feel where the pain comes from.

But it's not really from one place. It's just like touching a part of pot on fire to check where is hot. My whole stomach hurts.

Thanks for the recommendations.

Hmm! It's a toughie. I'm sorry for your issue, hope you find a solution

By the way I hope you have dewormed yourself recently?

You're welcome, also try shoprite/spar and look for "Greek yoghurt"/"natural yoghurt"/"live"

Jman06:
Reddington is progressing because it is managed by unbiased managers with experience in hospital administration. So, all the different professional groups know their roles and stick to them with none trying to lord over others.
The managers set the standards and everybody is bound to comply with no group claiming superiority over others.This is unlike our public hospitals that our local doctors run like some kind of animal farm. Playing politics with people's lives!

Go check most hospitals run by non medical managers, they're always doing well. Eg most Catholic hospitals run by reverend fathers.

It's actually better for a hospital to be managed by a doctor; the problem is not being a doctor but being a poor manager with poor leadership skills and inflated ego

A non-practising doctor with some business management or health economics qualifications is better for a hospital than a reverend father though the rf is doing his best

In addition to all that, sometimes the insurance companies don't remit the money owed to the hospital and the doctor goes hungry

You can show up for treatment and they will turn you away citing payment disputes with your provider

Sometimes the doctor will confide in you that he hasn't been paid for months. O di mwute...

Dakada...

To be honest, I need that wig.

Hmm this guy is really slaying out here...should women be worried...?

Lol I love it!

Keep discrediting them babe...nothing do you

Why dont they tell us what actually happened so that we can make intelligent observations?

Which one is "froze her to death" Smh

Well, if the allegation is true the family should sue the guts out of that hospital.

PqsMike:
Be sincere... Do you need a hug ??

Lol you are just not serious!
