What is this blood test, and please tell me we’re not bleeding every febrile child who attends ED? This just reinforces over reliance on healthcare, when the majority could/should be looked after at home if health education was better.

This is compassion. The Holy Father saw the President was vulnerable on the sticks, and hastened towards him to ease his journey. A lovely moment.

(7/10) Your character is best measured by how you treat those under you, rather than those supervising you. We all have encountered people who treat their bosses well but are jerks to their colleagues/trainees. Your true character is reflected by how you treat people that have
