Home Doctor on SALE!

his is the only physical book you need when medical help is not on the way:

The Home Doctor: Practical Medicine for Every Household

It’s a unique guide for the layman that you can use to manage common health ailments at home when seeing a doctor or going to a hospital is off the table.

The book is written by Dr. Maybell Nieves, a front-line doctor from Venezuela who has saved hundreds of people through one of the worst crises in modern history.

The ingenious methods she developed are found in this book and can be self-applied at home. That makes them extremely valuable if the medical system cannot be depended on, like during long-term blackouts for example.

32 Home Treatments That Can Save Your Life one Day

Having a way left to treat yourself or your loved ones during dark times is one of the most important steps you can take to survive them. It’s no secret that in any crisis it is a disease that ends up claiming the most lives.

Mail stamps

MAIL STAMPS SERIES

Monaco’s stamp, the only photograph, shows King Albert II holding a globe rotated to Asia where the epidemic began with a handwritten message urging “patience, trust, courage, solidarity”(20).Īll the images reflect a sentiment of global solidarity mass public health efforts and the hope of overcoming this new medical, scientific, and human challenge. In general the stamps signal governments' resolve to fight the epidemic (eg, clenched fists in stamps 26, 35, 41), reassure their populace, and educate and motivate them about public health best practices. A French Polynesian image illustrates 2 women with matching floral print masks separated by 6 coconuts, the recommended physical distance of 1 m (43). Others communicate public health mitigation measures, emphasizing recognition of symptoms (stamps 16, 30, 66), wearing of masks (12, 13, 36, 37, 46-51, 56-59, 67), social distancing, hand washing or surface disinfection, and other barrier measures (14-15, 42, 47, 63-68). Examples include a split masked face, half-caregiver half-soldier (stamp 40) a soldier wearing a gas mask paired with a physician flashing a victory sign (21 see also 58) masks symbolizing army, police, firefighters, and other civil servants (36-37) and a “superhero” health care worker with a floating red cape (1). Many of the images evoke combat imagery, honoring health care workers and armed forces and blurring the distinction between them as essential to combating the pandemic. A Swiss “solidarity” stamp features a Bauhaus-like image of a globe circumscribed by icons of people, the whole resolving into the coronavirus with its spike protein array (38). The virus itself is represented in both stylized (stamps 24, 38, 41, and 58) and more realistic illustrations (13, 28, 34-35) in the issue.

MAIL STAMPS SERIES

Two national stamps (Morocco and Switzerland ) and the United Nations series (6 stamps: 14-19) have surcharges, indicated with a + sign, to raise additional monies committed to charity funds. Many are commemorative, meaning they are issued for a short period and are not ongoing national postage issues. By comparison, the first AIDS-related stamp did not appear until years after the discovery of HIV. The first COVID-19 stamp was issued by Iran (stamp 21) on March 17, quickly after the first isolation and identification of SARS-CoV-2, 4 followed by China on May 11 (stamps 24 and 25), with the 65 remaining released through December 2020. We obtained images of most of the series from Yvert et Tellier, a global postage stamp company that maintains reference catalogs of global issues. We included only official stamps whose status was verified on postal sites because nonverified copies sometimes circulate without validation by the national postal office or as part of personalized prints, which is allowed in some jurisdictions when approved by a local private organization. In the process we incidentally identified postage issues commemorating pre–SARS-CoV-2 respiratory disease outbreaks including 1918 influenza, SARS, and H5N1 (eFigure 1 in the Supplement). We consulted an online list of national postal services and searched the philatelic section of each through December 2020 to identify 21 countries with pandemic-related postage series issues comprising 62 stamps, and 1 nonnational organization (the United Nations) with 1 issue comprising 6 stamps, for a total of 22 issues or series comprising 68 stamps. We conducted a review of official postage stamps issued in 2020 related to the COVID-19 pandemic. With the rise of email the popular cultural significance of postage stamps has diminished, but they still remain a way for governments and nongovernment organizations to communicate on a broad scale and to raise funds. Educational and financial messages about infectious diseases on stamps appeared in 1904 when Danish postal clerk Einar Holbøll developed the idea of raising money for tuberculosis by adding a surcharge to the sale of a “Christmas seal” stamp 2 (eFigure 1 in the Supplement). It is a mass medium used to commemorate events or raise public awareness about topics of wide social interest or influence. The commemoration of major events takes many forms, including the issuing of postage stamps. In living memory, no epidemic has generated a medical, scientific, social, and political response as massive, rapid, and global as that of COVID-19, which quickly became a global public health emergency recognized by the World Health Organization in January 2020.

Royal Mail celebrates 40th anniversary of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld series with special stamps

The stamps can be pre-ordered today, and will be available for general purchase as of 10 August 2023.

Fans can get their hands on stamps featuring Rincewind, The Librarian, Granny Weatherwax, Sam Vimes, and Great A’Tuin, as well as specially commissioned artworks of Death and Mort, Tiffany Aching and Moist von Lipwig, all of which are by Terry’s illustrator of choice for the Discworld series, Paul Kidby.

Royal Mail have been working closely with the Terry Pratchett Estate and Paul at the link above.

Illustrator, Paul Kidby says: “It has been a huge honour to illustrate this set of stamps to commemorate 40 years of Discworld. I am delighted to finally be able to tell people about it as it has been a big secret to keep! It’s a wonderful celebration of Terry’s ongoing legacy and continued popularity.”

David Gold, Director of External Affairs and Policy at Royal Mail says: “These striking stamps will be loved by generations both young and old. Terry Pratchett’s Discworld novels remain as popular as ever and it is fitting that in the 40th anniversary year of The Colour of Magic, we celebrate with a set of stamps that honour the work of an iconic and globally admired writer.”

The Discworld stamps are available to pre-order via Royal Mail’s website, by telephone on 03457 641 641 and at 7,000 Post Office branches across the UK. A Presentation Pack including all eight stamps in the set is also available and is priced at £13.50.

I swear they’ve put something in the mail that makes drawing these silly’s so fun

I tried to have fun with how I picture then for season 10 and this is what came out

Do they have a group name? I genuinely can’t remember, but they need one

#fee-mails could be a good name #they mail things for the price of a stamp #and pearl is definitely the postmaster here #I mean etho girls are a thing… let these men embrace womanhood #loving the postal shenanigans all around #hc #hermitcraft #hermitblr #hermitcraft season 10 #hermitcraft fanart #ethoslab #etho fanart #tango fanart #tangotek #pearlescentmoon #pearlesentmoon fanart

musing to myself this morning about the idea of penpals in fantasy settings like XIV

I miss my penpals from college, we used to send each other tea and plant clippings and little drawings (several of which I keep hung up by my desk space yet), and it makes me wonder what that would look like in Eorzea - there IS a mail system, after all, and I wonder what people include for their friends in different places

do you think dragonets would find penpals? interacting with the wider world at large by learning to hold a pen and scribbling away in a language they don't totally understand?

I think I'd like having a little dragon penpal. I wish we got mail from the characters we've met in the past

#ffxiv #ff14 #I don't totally know what I'm rambling about here I just miss sending and receiving mail with any frequency #I miss buying stamps #I stopped the habit because I moved like three times in a year and mailing became very difficult #wonder if there's like a website to find penpals

I recently signed up for an exchange of Soviet Women's Day postcards and mailed this pile of envelopes today. I used all vintage envelopes with the boxy zip codes and reverse address lines (from region to name) and triangle flaps. These things tend to pile up on me, it was nice to actually use some of them!
