BREAKING: Australian Prime Minister Albanese went to a Sydney mosque for Eid prayers to stand against Islamophobia, only to end up being threatened, with everyone screaming “Allahu Akbar” at him. He just sits there terrified, not knowing what to do.





I wonder what antibiotics they've been doling out in Kent 🤔 as a preventative treatment for meningitis. Hope it wasn't this one... Ciprofloxacin (a fluoroquinolone antibiotic) can cause serious, disabling, and potentially irreversible peripheral neuropathy and central nervous system (CNS) effects that may mimic neurological symptoms, including those seen in meningitis, such as intense headaches, confusion and ataxia. While fluoroquinolones are generally considered for treating some infections, they can induce a "meningism" state - a drug-induced aseptic meningitis - characterised by headache, stiff neck and nausea. Key details regarding ciprofloxacin-induced nerve damage and CNS symptoms include: Symptoms Resembling Meningitis/Neurological Damage: Symptoms often include severe headaches, confusion, delirium, agitation, visual hallucinations, dizziness and ataxia. Peripheral Neuropathy: This can manifest as tingling, numbness, burning, pain or weakness in the arms and legs. These symptoms can occur shortly after beginning treatment and may be permanent. Time to Onset: Neuropathic symptoms can start within 24 hours to one week of treatment initiation, and in some cases, the damage may be long-lasting or irreversible. Mechanism of Toxicity: The nerve damage is often categorised as a "dying-back" sensory axonopathy. Severe cases have been linked to an acute motor and sensory axonal neuropathy (AMSAN), similar to Guillain-Barré syndrome. Risk Factors: Elderly patients, those with chronic renal disease, diabetes, or those taking other neurotoxic-associated drugs are at higher risk. Warnings: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and other health authorities warn that fluoroquinolones should be avoided for minor infections because of the risk of permanent disabling side effects, including peripheral neuropathy" Of COURSE they wouldn’t use a drug that has side effects that mimic meningitis. They wouldn’t do that. But guess what… THAT’S THE DRUG BEING USED! Oops! england.nhs.uk/long-read/outb…
