@Zaffar_Nama I think similar stuff was said sometime back by a celebrity as well. I hope this is not sarcasm

BCCI announced 131 crore rupees prize money for the Indian team. I request them to increase 19 crores more and give it to all Indians so that 150 crore Indians can get 1 crore each.

@police_haryana He deserves a very strict punishment!

आपत्तिजनक गीत “Tateeree” मामले में हरियाणा पुलिस की सख्त कार्रवाई। गायक आदित्य प्रतिक सिंह सिसोदिया उर्फ बादशाह के खिलाफ FIR दर्ज। आरोपी के खिलाफ Look Out Circular (LOC) जारी कराने की प्रक्रिया शुरू, पुलिस के समक्ष पेश होने के लिए नोटिस जारी। गिरफ्तारी के लिए पुलिस टीमें लगातार दबिश दे रही हैं। पंचकूला पुलिस ने YouTube से विवादित गाना हटवाया, अन्य सोशल मीडिया प्लेटफॉर्म से भी वीडियो हटवाने की कार्रवाई जारी। आपत्तिजनक सामग्री साझा करने वालों पर भी होगी सख्त कानूनी कार्रवाई। #HaryanaPolice #PanchkulaPolice @NayabSainiBJP @cmohry

@Its_Badshah It would have been much better if you would have simply apologized rather than bringing out this foolish video. Shameless people like you deserve maximum possible punishment.

Nothing is above the sentiments of my people 🙏

@BhushanManmath It's no longer allowed now. Would be considered a six currently

Cervical cancer claimed 350000 lives in 2022 in LMICs, which were mostly preventable. A simple vaccine can protect your child’s future. Prevention today means protection tomorrow. #HPVVaccine #cervicalcancer @MoHFW_INDIA

@ShivAroor It's well known that you are an idiot. But now you are making yourself appear as an idiot of the highest order!

STAY WITH ME. A few years ago, a patient was referred to me because he was diagnosed with complicated cirrhosis. He had an infection which led to a condition called hepatic encephalopathy (brain failure due to high ammonia levels). The treatment largely involved ammonia reducing therapies. One drug was central to this - Rifaximin - a non-absorbable antibiotic that reduced ammonia in the body. I prescribed him Rifaximin for 6 weeks and advised him follow-up. He came back to me, not after six weeks, but in 4 weeks, this time, in liver coma (worst stage of brain failure - due to very high ammonia). He spent two days in the ICU and six days in total in the hospital. His hospital bill was close to INR 80,000. He had no insurance and his wife borrowed the money from neighbors and friends to clear hospital dues. Upon questioning, I found that he was not taking the Rifaximin drug I had prescribed. He was only on the other two drugs (one, a syrup called lactulose for improving ammonia clearance in gut). I was furious, because the patient spent a whole week unecessarily in the ICU and wasted so much money that he never had - just because he was "not compliant" to my orders. I decided it was time for me to school him a bit. But I was wrong. He was compliant. He had purchased Rifaximin and was on it. For 15 days. Thereafter, he could not afford it. He was an autorickshaw driver who shuttled school children every morning and evening. He could hardly make ends meet. He had two children of his own. The Rifaximin brand I prescribed him was 42 rupees per tablet. He had to consume two a day - which would mean 2520 rupees a month. He just did not have that money - so he skipped it - to not compromise on other important matters - childrens education and food. He was confused and scared about opting for a cheaper version of Rifaximin because one, he was unsure about the quality of Rifaximin that was not prescribed by me and two, he was "scared" that I would scold him for buying a cheaper Rifaximin and if that got him into trouble. I was confused and scared about prescribing a cheaper version of Rifaximin because one, I was unsure about the quality of Rifaximin that was not "a good promoted brand" and two, I was "scared" that his family would scold me for prescribing a cheaper Rifaximin and if that got him into trouble. It is heartbreaking that many doctors still simply don’t trust generic medicines. Too often, they worry that these cheaper options are lower quality or might cause more problems than the big, famous brands. This fear leads them to prescribe expensive drugs instead, and the real tragedy is that it pushes vital healthcare out of reach for the ordinary people who need it most - like my patient. This narrative, that generic drugs 'are never good' and that only big pharmaceutical marketed drugs are what works has been deeply ingrained into doctors and patients alike - I do not know by whom and since when. Looking back, these strong emotions were based on either opinions, testimonials or second- and third-hand information. Not evidence. Like I said. Stay with me. This is life changing and will disrupt the drug market in India. Here are the results of The Citizens Generic vs. Brand Drugs Quality Project. 1/11

I keep wondering why India, with millions of non-data users, still doesn’t offer dedicated call-only plans especially for senior citizens and underage users. Not everyone needs data, yet people are pushed into buying data-inclusive plans because there’s no alternative. Why force unnecessary costs on those who only want to make and receive calls? Telecom companies should introduce true call-only packages that actually meet people’s needs!!! Isn’t it????

@_KarishmaK Ditto! As soon as it is 9:30-10:00, I feel FOMO about relaxing and getting a timely sleep.

In contrast to my teenage years of fighting with my parents for permission for late night parties 😅, my idea of an evening with friends is now: Starters at 6:30, Dinner at 8:30, Dessert by 9:00. All cleared up and asleep at 10:00. A get-together that starts at 9:00 pm is - for me - not FOMO but JOMO - the joy of missing out! 😍😋

@DanielBordmanOG This is very insulting and demeaning! Please post it again..
