So now stinging nettles and ants are to be protected species, no longer subject to eradication.

After years of field work farming, I'm not sure if I would prefer the disease over the nettles as a cure.

I used to get Dilantin injected intravenously every four hours for a few months to prevent seizures from head trauma. I liken the burning to that of nettles, only coursing thru your veins. They eventually had to sedate me for the pain and anxiety of those Dilantin injections. It killed off a few good veins from phlebitis too.

“organic-osmium”?
Osmium is one of the rarest substances on earth.
At $13000 per kilogram, this med will cost a fortune.

I know a fellow who traveled to New Guinea and had an encounter with stinging nettles in a most unfortunate place. Says they are absolutely NO fun!

Ovarian cancers are becoming increasingly resistant to existing chemotherapy drugs

Interesting, wonder if that is similar to antibiotic resistance.
