[@sofietcheverry9421]

I'm not from the United States but I think it's the same everywhere, it depends on the severity and not on who got there first. For example, when I was 10 years old I went to the emergency room At 12 am because I had been all day vomiting and an intense pain in my stomach and in the last hours my fever was high. A doctor from my health insurance came to my house and suggested that it might be appendicitis, so he recommended going to the emergency room as soon as possible. When we arrived it was full of People since it was flu season, mean, there were thousands of sick children (in my country emergency rooms are divided into pediatric and adult) We checked in and sat down to wait, but after half an hour we explained the situation again and they made us go to a to a room before others who were perhaps before us. And luckily because i had a 40 degree fever, severely dehydrated and a gangrenous appendicitis.

In real life Australian tick paralysis is really only of concern in veterinary medicine - it can be deadly for cats and dogs but it hardly ever affects humans.

[@marycanary]

But I’m guessing that it does happen sometimes?

[@SharonToggle]

@@marycanary It's possible but it's really rare. The tick needs to be attached for several days to inject enough toxin to affect a person, and most people will notice and remove it well before that. It usually causes irritation and numbness at the site of the tick bite, so generally people will know pretty quickly that something is going on if they have a tick attached.

[@tigerfang6063]

I have a rare autoimmune disorder. First in area with the diagnosis. For months I was told I was just dying and that I'd never walk again. 7 years later I'm alive and mobile (though I wouldn't be running any marathons in the near future). It took one doctor to actually dive a little deeper and actually listen to me. It changed my life. I had to make a decision that this was something I could either live with or die from and I chose to live with it. But initially when everyone tells you that you're going to die its hard not to take it to heart.

We tick check like it's as normal as eating dinner, and every one knows how to do it, even the kids so they can do it to each other when playing outside.

you know there really are times no doctors are available & nurses even nurse practitioner. can't do or know everything my mother was a nurse & father a doctor & neither of them knew everything even when they finally retired. Both spent 40 some years in medicine & were people who the hospital staff management & even the courts would turn too & both would always admit at times being puzzled & having to talk to someone about something they didn't know. Hospitals even big expensive ones don't have thousands of doctors or nurse on staff every minute of everyday & even those on call there's a point where there's no one left. There's lots of things we now that people dont study or worry about because medicine & our bodies have adapted but yet at times they can come back or be made improved by someone evil & thus something we thought no longer a big deal suddenly returns or suddenly becomes a big deal again.

First of all if they think it is contagious they would have put both of them in isolation rooms making sure they have limited contact with everyone everyone would be extra careful to make sure not to get infected.

This is a poor attempt at recreating "House"

[@amber7368]

You see those ticks a lot on Bondi Vet. It can be deadly for pets

[@katiewhite6542]

[@Bluefrog757]

[@taco-bella]

My brother got a tick on his private parts twice… I don’t even know how

[@Bluefrog757]

Yikes

[@ncaxolotl2495]

I’ve been bit a couple times by ticks and i have never gotten sick there just annoying to remove weird

[@sweetsmoreo4922]

“Try a minosuppressent-“ *fucking dies* I know I probably spelt that wrong or not even close but shhhh🤫

One thing I don't like about this show is the actors and actresses for the family members. They always act way more dumb than in real life. "IS HE GONNA SHOVE THAT TUBE DOWN HER THROAT????" They do this multiple times throughout the years of this show. Never have I ever had a family member assume an intubation was some random horrible torturous thing that we were doing for no reason. The show is fairly accurate medically, albeit you can tell they use old published medical cases because of what meds they order. Unfortunately though, the acting for the patients and family members is kinda dumb.

[@beeeeeeeeeeg]

as soon as she said “plane ride home from australia” i knew it was a paralysis tick 💀

[@beeeeeeeeeeg]

paralysis ticks only usually affect animals and they can be deadly if left to get their toxin enough

[@angelasmith6108]

[@MCeili]

Ticks are so common where I live, that would be the first thing ER doctors would look for.

[@sergeantchick2820]

I’ve never had a tick but my mother would always warn me of them and explained how to remove one if bitten. Same with leeches.

[@Aceforever-ly2fu]

This scene I see in her in another's movies

[@BRUNETTECANARY]

Dr. Halstead would make a great dad. When will there be a storyline of him having a baby with a woman?

[@Nobody-iv2ot]

I think the fact that they just came back from Australia should've explained everything.

[@Winter_Tea-gz1hf]

Dr be like: since when did you guys became so kind are y’all dating or something Me be like:😂😂😂😂😂😂what did he just say

[@carolynolsen132]

They’re in hospital gowns but no masks, gloves, face shields, etc

[@opalglass8101]

I would have considered dangerously low Potassium. It can also manifest as rapid ascending paralysis. I'm suprised that they didn't throw that around at the beginning as well.

[@oliveri3534]

Her blood was normal, so they might have checked it already.

[@tessabiggs2917]

Hands up all Aussies who are yelling it’s a bloody tick. 🤣🤣😂

You’d need a ridiculous amount of them to paralyse a human 😅

[@theflashgirl2057]
