A poster in the UK pointing out the wealth divide as a fake NHS poster.

But the billionaires shown are all from the US.

UK billionaires sigh in relief.

Severe infections may require other treatments. High velocity surgery, maybe.

more specifically, you may need to treat the parasite with a kephalectomy

Wealth tax can treat early infections if used aggressively enough.

You'll need surgery to treat the current condition.

YSK: A cheap tick key is much more reliable for safe removals than tweezers. Save some stress, and potentially a trip to urgent care!

also important to note how to remove ticks regardless of tool used: grab them as close to the skin as possible, to minimize the risk of leaving parts of the tick behind.

even better than a tick key is a tick lasso pen, gives you good control and visibility and makes it easy to get really close to the skin.
