      To me it’s a shitpost because the way they clearly treat women different to man, complaining about illnesses. Just take an asperin and STFU.

        What the hell does sex/gender have to do with this?

        Don’t attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity. The doctor didn’t do their job properly. happens everyday to men AND women.

          Read up on it. Everyone on board has anxiety. She reported no current symptoms: a cough she’d had several days earlier had resolved before she was examined.

          She specifically told the doctors that she was feeling anxious. They didn’t pull that out of their asses; they listened to their patient.

          She displayed and reported no current symptoms consistent with the Hantavirus. That’s not improper doctoring. They would have needed a crystal ball to diagnose her at that time.

            thanks for the clarification. so she was asymptomatic when talking to the doctors, and only complaining of anxiety?

            that supports my point that gender has nothing to do with this

              Exactly. Nothing about gender. Nothing about incompetence. The whole thing is clickbait/ragebait bullshit.

    I’m anxious you decided to take the out-of-context headline of an article you didn’t read and run with it:

    “They were not thinking that these symptoms were compatible with hantavirus. Why? Because what she was telling [them] was [that she had] an episode of coughing some days ago that had disappeared, and what she was having at that moment was kind of like stress or anxiety or nervousness. So it was not catalogued [as hantavirus],” [Spanish health minister] Padilla said.

    [Padilla] said the woman, who had been travelling on the ship at the centre of a deadly hantavirus outbreak, had been suffering flu-like symptoms but they appeared to be getting better and she did not have a fever.

    He said that the woman’s condition had deteriorated between the ship and the plane. “It is not that the patient was feeling bad and she was saying: ‘OK, I’m not going to say anything because I want to be on the plane.’ It was like: ‘OK, we have measured your temperature, it was not fever, afterwards you have been on the plane, it has taken off, you have started feeling bad, we have measured your temperature and it was fever.’”

    Padilla said passengers could not have been tested onboard the vessel because there were no rapid PCR tests for hantavirus available. Any testing would have involved flying samples to Madrid to a specialist lab, a process that would have taken 24 hours. Those delays would have made it impossible to rescue those on board due to a forecast of extremely high winds from Monday evening, which were due to be “hell” on Tuesday, he said.

      It’s still pretty lazy for a doctor to just agree with your own non professional take on the situation without even looking into it. The fact she was on the ship is by its self a reason to test for it/consider it a serious risk. It’s one thing if this was a random person, but she was from the Hanta Virus ship

        A patient without a fever who describes having none of the symptoms of hantavirus? There’s a whole ship to triage. It’s still pretty lazy to pass judgment without reading the article, and to hang on to unrealistic expectations of what is possible.

        Did you even read the full quote? By the time her tests were back in 24 hours, she probably would’ve been on death’s door had she still been on the ship. They clearly got her hospital care as soon as they landed, and I seriously doubt they were sending her home.

        I’m sorry, but the fact you’re calling it “Hanta Virus” tells me I should trust the doctors/epidemiologists and Spain’s health minister more than I trust some rando on the Internet spitballing “well they should’ve just done [thing]!!” Her condition began deteriorating literally on the evacuation plane, and she seemingly got care basically as soon as possible.

    Women’s health concerns are always dismissed. They ignored my mom while she was in active labour off-and-on for a week. Only then, did they bother to check and her water had broken a week ago. I mean, at least I’m not dead 🤷

      The doctor believed the woman’s description of her symptoms as “anxiety”. Can you try to at least read the article before letting your confirmation bias fit it into a narrative?

        I mean the headline literally says the opposite. So I would blame the journalists here.

        But yeah, telling that there was a woman who was evacuated without symptoms but still tested positive later and who was also very anxious isn’t really worth a news story.

    Guys, ask any woman about how they are treated in any healthcare setting.

    It’s always “hysteria”

      Yes, even the woman herself thought it was anxiety. So fucked up that she reporter anxiety and the doctor said it’s probably just anxiety. On top of that, they sent her to a hospital. They should have just assumed it’s the virus and kept her on the ship.

      More a woman thing than a France thing. She could go to a doctor bleeding out of eyes and ears and they’d say are you sure this isn’t just a funky period?
