It is defined as confrontation with death (acutal death or threatened with), severe trauma or sexual abuse (DSM V). Then there is a big list as to how the patient response to those triggers to diagnose it as PTSD.
Im no psychiatrist and do not know if severe emotional abuse as a child can lead to similar symptoms of ptsd ( such as flashbacks, nightmares, physiological responses and avoidance of stimuli).
Or he has some childhood trauma that is not told here, idk raped / abused.

It is used more frequently than earlier, maybe its becoming a blanket diagnose like adhd and autism, but the official criteria are still pretty strict.

it's not called that because of the c-shape, but because it's short for caesarean-section. So same as in German the birth of an emperor (Kaiser). Apparently Caesar was born this way.

I believe it has to do with something called the J-curve. In many studies in the "abstinent" group you have lumped together all kinds of people who are not drinking. But this might be for all kinds of different reasons, not just health, like previous conditions, taking medication not compatible with alcohol, etc.

So often in those light to moderate drinkers you have a drop of significant effects, that can be interpreted as "protective effect". But this might be just because this random population represents a overall more healthy group with a "healthy" alcohol habit and overall lifestyle with less previous conditions rather than the abstinent group and not a protective effect.

Oh but there are approved early treatment therapies. Admittedly rather new, but both EMA and now lately FDA approved. Monoclonal antibodies like Casirivimab/Imdevimab and Regdanvimab.
It is harder to implement because it's an IV-treatment, so you need a covid-positive ward with monitoring for IV-use, but with pretty promising reduction of severe cases.

Not once have I seen any mention in our (german) news or any implementations to install treatment places similar to vacination centers.

I'm not saying that because I believe politics wants to keep up the "dictatorship of the pandemic", but I think it's because vaccines are easy and other measures are harder to implement and it's a lazy approach.

You literally sound like Trump, citing sources with "many such cases" without any proof.

I completely agree with you, in the last half year or so hugelol really cranked up the antisemitic posts and right now i can't even tell if this website is just living off those memes or they actually deny the holocaust and hate jews...
And then you have comments like Nulls who actually compare this to the beginning of the holocaust.
