Forget H5N1. Forget SARS. Forget the flesh-eating zombie mutants.
There are far more contagious viruses out there, just waiting to go pandemic. Its only a matter of time.
Almost as contagious as the dreaded ‘Spanish flea’ virus. An isolated outbreak was detected at a regional winery in NSW over the weekend. Infection individuals were seen boarding a plane to Victoria on Sunday lunchtime.
Like this new virus, do not try and confront infected individuals. Notify the infectious songs division of your hospital (manned my tone deaf nurses!) and stay clear of the area if not immunized with an iPod (or other generic music device).

Somehow I manage to wait until the end of the shift and then find a nearby private visitors toilet in the hallway. I’ve had many relieving moments as I urinate non-stop for well over a minute. I’ve...

Ashley said: I’m about to graduate from Nursing School this August and I understand how frustrating it will be to have patients question you and your knowledge. However, I also believe that patients SHOULD know as much as they can about their health. Isn’t that our job as nurses? To educate our patients on prevention and maintenance...

Pritam said: I just read about an iPhone app called uChek that the FDA is investigating. uChek seems to be basically just reading the strips from the phone camera, using a light box as an attachment to keep the strip in and the phone over. I am not sure how accurate it is, but they seem to have compared it against the lab method. Will be...
