[__ Science __ ] This Is Becoming A Real BIG Problem!

I haven't had any large enough reaction to warrant an epi pin. I forgot the rule. I should post the signs of the anaphylaxis shock as its the same as a mild nerve agent reaction

Anaphylaxis is not a mild condition. A person in anaphylaxis is very likely to die without attention. I've seen one case. The person involved came into the clinic, saying he felt bad after a shot.

When I got a cuff on him, his blood pressure was 50/0, and he said the room was getting dark. I hit him with a shot of epinephrine, left him with another technician, and ran down to the E.R. We had a civilian for an MOD, and when I told him about the patient, he said, "sorry, but I'm a dermatologist."

What I said to him, got me a letter of reprimand, but it got his butt up to the clinic to do his job.

What you want is Tupelo honey...that's the good stuff. (Which he hasn't been sending you) it's also known as Swamp Honey
They sell Sourwood in Gatlinburg...also another fine honey. I happen to like it a lot.

Mild nerve agent attack symptoms, a severe attack,same exact meds are used..we carried three pins because one set won't do.upon mild attack hit yourself with set ,wait 5 if symptoms go away then stop,seek aid ,add other set up to three .

Upon severe symptoms,your are out,buddy administered all three sets at once ,if you live you ain't walking moving bowels.
Cns is hit by then.upon severe attacKS of both anaphalixis .you can need of a anti seisure meds as the heart will race until you die.the epi pin speeds up your heart the other keeps your chest moving.
 
When I was training, we were told to administer atropine for nerve gas attacks. But I can see why epinephrine might be useful. Only thing is, it will increase heart rates in most cases.
 
Oh, right. Was it South American Killer Bees?

No, wait....

Killer bees dying out?

Yesterday I ordered some work done that took a little effort for me. I have a hobby farm and I grow wheat and soybeans. I had an agronomist stop out to look at my soybeans to see if there was a problem with aphids. He showed me how infested my crops are and how much damage has already been done. The problem is that once they get a foothold, they propagate rapidly and can decimate a crop. So I had a choice to make whether or not to order a herbicide application. On the onset one might think this to not be such a difficult decision. Spray insecticide, kill the aphids, and save the crop.

Well, there's more to it than that because the insecticide will kill just about everything including insects that feed on the aphids or provide other benefits like bees that pollinate the very flowers the beans are producing. This was not an easy decision.

That's true, I didn't think of that which makes the situation that much harder. If you save the bees you might lose your crops, but if you choose to kill the bees sooner or later there won't be any crops left.

They accused Russia who have denied it. It has happened twice. Nobody has been accused for the last time. Trump thinks it was Russia too

Is the first time you're referring to the retired spy and his daughter?
I completely missed anything more recent.
The way I read your comment I thought you meant an attack on the general public (hopefully not?)

No sorry not a general public attack. About 3 weeks ago a married couple suffered the same thing. Just an ordinary couple no connections to the others or to Russia. Sadly the woman died.
