Health › Re: NMA Strike, What Is The FG Doing To Reopen Our Hospitals by pendusky(m): 4:37pm On Aug 16, 2014 |
cosmatika: Every time the Minister of health is asked about the strike he'll say that 90% of NMA demands have been met. No one ever asks him to explain what 90% meant; some circulars and MoU. These are documents they offer you and turn round to contravene and debase. In January they offered circulars and MoU, we took them and called off threat of strike, 7 months later the circulars were never implemented and the MoU have been desecrated by this same government. Now MoU and Circulars are no longer sacred government documents. We want commencement of implementation. This government lies a lot. Today they said they don't have money to implement but 6 months earlier when granting the circular we urged them to send supplementary budget for it's implementation. The government agents said our business was to do our work as they will pay from SERVICE WIDE VOTE. Who is fooling who? Isreal despite being in a constant war zone did not sack her doctors after 5 months of strike. All through this strike, doctors under NMA directive have always scrambled to take care of bomb blasts victims in the North. Several NGOs commended this gesture, did your government comment on these? People are bamboozled into thinking that all doctors are actually needed to contain ebola (which by the way this government stood by and watch fly into Nigeria). That’s cheap propaganda.All they need are infectious disease specialists and the public health physicians.Ebola will also not be managed in Teaching Hospitals, we need quarantine centres. Not that pako (raw wood) mama-put structure at Mainland hospital Lagos. After N1.9b release all we have are wooden structures no airflow controlled tents. No citizen have asked government questions on these. NMA have volunteered to send necessary specialists to the quarantine centres. Where are the quarantine centres in your state? We don't need Surgeons, Gynaecologists, Dermatologist, etc for ebola containment. It's all cheap propaganda. Note that in this strike NMA is going for broke. We don’t care what Nigerians think because they are weak. People that worship those that acquired riches by stealing from them (Nigerians). We want the health sector privatised or order restored. People that set up Yayale Ahmed committee to study international best practices in health sector and make suggestions on way forward then turn around and undermine the same committee, rendering their recommendations useless before they started (after spending so much to fund it).Nigerians' capacity for selective amnesia amazes me.Well, I am always consoled by the fact that every population only gets the leadership they deserve. Okay next time you want to post do The copy and pasting well. for your information they will open hospital by Monday. |

Family › Re: Memoirs Of A Dyslexic Nigerian: Do You Have Dyslexia?? by pendusky(m): 5:48am On Aug 11, 2014 |
Op thanks for sharing The info. I came across that word dyslexia when I was watching this Indian movie acted by amir Khan of 3 idiots. The movie title is " like stars on earth " it was so touching that tears started flowing from my eyes.
The truth is when a child with dyslexia is spotted early they should be treated with care. and The most important think is that they always have intelligence that goes with that but when bullied each time they wouldn't answer a question quickly.
in that movie I was made to understand Albert Einstein, Leonardo Da Vinci, Abhishek Bechchan, Walt Disney were dyslexia victim yet they came out strong.
Op thanks for sharing I believe we can educate Nigerians on this.
please let's us watch this movie called "LIKE STARS ON EARTH" we will understand more of why people like op should not be ignored in The society. |

7 Health Risks of Eating Too Much Salt.
Too much salt in the diet, which is marked by high sodium content, can deeply impact almost all biochemical pathways in your body. As a standard, your dietary intake of sodium should not exceed 2,000 milligrams per day. Any excess of this amount can inhibit the proper absorption of nutrients and disrupt normal body functions. The following are seven dangerous health consequences of eating too many salty foods.
1. Hypertension The number one medical consequence of high salt intake is hypertension. High intake of salt causes water retention and promotes abnormal influx of water molecules into your blood vessels.
This action instantaneously increases your blood volume and blood pressure. Sudden rises of blood pressure can trigger life threatening cardiovascular emergencies like strokes and heart attacks. Reducing your sodium intake through diet can lower your blood pressure by as much as 25%.
2. Abnormal Heart Development A habit of eating salty food can also heighten your risk of non-blood pressure related heart diseases. Having higher than normal blood volume means that your heart has to work much harder to provide proper circulation. Over time, your heart can become abnormally large and your heart valves can become thinner. An enlarged heart is significantly weaker and can lead to symptoms like chest pains, breathlessness and chronic fatigue. Fatal cases like sudden cardiac arrest and heart failure can also occur.
3. Osteoporosis Sodium inhibits your body’s absorption and utilization of calcium, leading to a loss of bone mass and increased porousness of your bones. Women after menopause, diabetics and elderly people who are already at high risk of osteoporosis should be especially careful about salt intake. Having a high salt diet can drastically heighten your chances for fractures and other skeletal deformations.
4. Kidney Disorders Excess calcium and sodium that are not used by your body goes into your urine. This can increase the filtration load of your kidneys and increase the likelihood of crystal formation. Elevated blood pressure and blood volume are also extremely damaging to your kidneys.
5. Dehydration and Swelling Feeling thirsty is a direct response after having salty food. This happens because excessive sodium in your blood draws water out of your cells and into your tissues. Dehydrated cells signal your brain for water. Having fluid filled tissue makes you look bloated and swollen, and these symptoms are especially severe in the lower parts of your body. Reducing your salt intake is an effective way of preventing swollen feet, ankles and calves.
6. Digestive Diseases Sodium regulates the acid-base balance of blood and body fluids. Too much salt can trigger acid reflux and cause heart burn and long-term damage to your upper digestive tract. Studies have shown that habitual intake of salty foods is a strong risk factor for duodenal and gastric ulcers and cancers.
7. Electrolyte and Hormone Imbalance Excessive sodium can impact both your electrolyte and hormone balance. Too much sodium can severely hinder the conduction of nerve impulses and induce symptoms like dizziness, muscle cramps and shakiness. You can also have impaired sensory response, feel disoriented or develop other depressive symptoms. when I started this topic around 8am yesterday hoping it will make front-page for people to aware of The effect of excessive salt consumption mods wouldn't notice it. bringing it to front page when people were already dying of The ignorance means mods ain't working as we would like them to work. https://www.nairaland.com/1848218/read-before-drink-salt-preventanyway thanks op for The copy and paste work there. and also to http://yabaleftonline.com/2014/08/read-drink-rumoured-salt-water-ebola-cure/ for seeing The same stuff hours after I posted them. you guys are really working. |
