Parents should do well to be close to their teenage daughters and regularly advise and educate them about sex.Teenage pregnancy messes up a lot of things.........school,emotions,psychology etc.

hush15:
I do agree with you completely. When it comes to man woman matter, its a difficult one to really dissect.

I know of two friends who are both AS. While the guy was willing to push ahead, the lady left the guy and now married to AA guy[b] but i can tell you today that she is still struggling as she already had two miscarriage. I dont rejoice in her pain and i feel for her. There maybe medical reasons but going for AA isnt changing anything. [/b]Afterall, she is healthy even being an AS. Ofcourse we also considered the spiritual angle and when i spoke with about her with a spiritual minded person and he said she would have been more happier with the previous guy. Well, you a med person from your responses and am sure you know what you saying.

While science may say otherwise, that one shot at happiness maybe prove maybe the best way and prove otherwise if the believe is strong but then, you right, we cant ognore the medical implication
Miscarriage does not have to do with genotype.It's a different issue entirely.
Rhesus incompatibility or congenital anomalies could have caused the miscarriages.
She did the right thing by not marrying the AS genotype guy.I wouldn't want my sister to do that too.

Very true...

But I have heard people who prayed their way out of it.

Though my church in particular will not join you if you don't pass the genotype test and wondering if they indeed believe in miracles undecided
Why should they join you?Get your miracle first and then come back.They will join you then.

HealthRe: Group Asks Court To Jail JOHESU Officials For Failing To Suspend Strike - Punch by thorpido(m): 11:17pm On May 23, 2018
DrAdonis:
This whole JOHESU thing is tiring. They are just fighting an unjust battle which is an eternally lost one. They just want to further destroy the healthcare in Nigeria.

Let me just explain one or two of what they are clamouring for the non medically inclined

1. Just because doctors are appointed consultants, they want same.
Let us examine who a consultant is in the hospital setting and his responsibilities. A consultant is a medical doctor who finished medical school, did housemanship and NYSC then writes an exam called primaries which is very tough and competitive with an average pass rate of 20% (not cause majority fail but they choose the top scores as pass) then work as a medical officer for varying years (some more than 10 years) before starting residency. The residency is the postgraduate studies to be come consultants in various specialities like neurosurgery, plastic surgery, Paediatrics etc.
The residency training is a rigorous one and the resident doctor works for no less than 68 hours in a week, runs the emergency, clinics, do ward rounds, teach medical students and even nursing and other students. The resident doctor also does case and seminar presentations carries out researches, writes academic papers and does a thesis (all these and more are necessary prerequisites to become a consultant). This residency takes 6 to 12 years depending on the specialty.

Also take note that a doctor that does not do residency but has 20 years work and surgical experience is not decorated a consultant.
So for a pharmacist, nurse or medical record personnel to just wake up and say because they have 10 years experience they should be decorated consultants is very laughable and shows myopia, greed and the entitlement mentality that defines JOHESU.

Also, and more importantly, the consultant is the person in charge of patient care and determines what tests, what drugs, what nursing care the patient needs and is indisputably the head of the team. This comes with its challenges too, for instance if any thing goes wrong in patient care, it is the consultant that carries the medicolegal burden. So of what use is the consultant pharmacist or nurse in this setting? The patient will only suffer and the standard of care will further depreciate as there will be confusion due to the many unnecessary captains of the ship.
Don't be like the average ignorant medical doctor.
Johesu members do NOT want the same thing doctors have.They DO NOT(as ignorantly broadcast everywhere) want the SAME salary as doctors.
They however WANT to advance their careers and ask for opportunities to do so.In developed countries,there are opportunities to become specialists/consultants in the allied health professions.There are consultant pharmacists abroad for example.
The clamour will set up postgraduate colleges that will provide postgraduate trainings that can enable health workers attain consultancy/specialist status.No one will become a consultant while doing youth service! huh
No confusion will come in the health sector.It has worked abroad,it can work in Nigeria too.Specialists can work as a team with each individual member making contribution to the team.There will be a leader who is still the doctor.

The NMA actually feel Johesu is going to drag positions with them and feel threatened. Not necessarily.It is a team work.
Erroneously,many doctors feel nurses,pharmacists,lab personnel etc work FOR THEM.No!Everyone contributes to patient care.There just must be a leader.
HealthRe: Group Asks Court To Jail JOHESU Officials For Failing To Suspend Strike - Punch by thorpido(m): 10:41pm On May 23, 2018
Before a group goes on strike,the government is given notice.If the government fails to meet them before they embark on strike,then they can't be blamed if they go on strike.
Unfortunately, they can't call off strike unless their needs are met or there is a negotiation.
I don't think a judge can just give an order to resume work.There are labour laws and the striking union obviously has lawyers too who know the law.Even if a judge orders,there can be an appeal.

The government is the one prolonging this issue.

dino zoff wasn't even the best italian keeper
schemichel is consisently mentioned in top 5 keepers
but lets be fair and compare zoff to his generation
see keepers better than zoff:
sepp maier
peter shilton
not a long list as zoff was great but top two?nahhhhhh
There's no Italian goalkeeper than was better than Zoff,to be honest.
Most football analysts will pick Zoff after they pick Yashin.

Yashin yea
zoff? u kidding right?
zoff was good but long shots beat him easily
peter schemichel was way better than zoff
Long shot was his weakness but he was better in other aspects.

Naaaaa.One of the best but not even the first two.
You ever heard of Lev Yashin of Russia or Dino Zoff of Italy?Those are the best two ever.
