Nnicolette Posted December 8, 2020 #5 Share Posted December 8, 2020 (edited) So this is concerning me. This exact list of symptoms just happened to a friend at my house the day before last. I thought he was dead, but he came back around and the hospital said it was just dehydration (a very odd sudden acute case?) Then today my brother in law went down too. His seemed more like a stroke, but again the hospital cant find any problem and will release him in a few hours. Another lady at the place my sister works had the same occurrence. They said just be careful. Careful of what though none of them exerted themselves or anything or know what exactly to be careful of. Something weird is going on this has been a very very common story in the past couple days. Edited December 8, 2020 by Nnicolette 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not attributing this specific case to climate change, as I do not know if it can be attributed to CC, but I was addressing that scientists have been warning that climate change will cause the appearence of new illness, and that pandemics might become recurrent. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eldorado Posted December 17, 2020 #12 Share Posted December 17, 2020 A scientist at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) revealed that nickel was found in milk samples collected in Eluru town. “Presence of nickel in the milk samples is something which is warning us. It should not be present in the milk samples. It’s alarming,” Avr Mohan, the medical superintendent of District Hospital Eluru, told Al Jazeera in a phone interview. Mohan, who is also the district coordinator of health services, said scientists were yet to find out why metal was found in milk samples but there was a chance it may have come from pesticides.
