BastingChemina@slrpnk.netto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Non-Americans, what's it like when you're sick and need to go to the doctor?5·10 days agoI’m in France in a small village but I’m quite lucky with the doctor situation.
If I’m sick I go online, see what shot is available for my doctor and book it, usually in the best few days. If it’s urgent I can call or go there and I’ll usually get an appointment during the day with my doctor or one of the other two doctors working there.
Then I walk there since it’s 400m away.

BastingChemina@slrpnk.netto News@lemmy.world•Critical hurricane forecast tool abruptly terminated69·16 days agoAbout project 2025:
The plan, spearheaded by the Heritage Foundation, says that the weather service should “fully commercialize its forecasting operations” and focus on providing data to private companies.
It also calls for a “review” of the work of the National Hurricane Center. It acknowledges that the center provides important public safety information, but also says its data should be presented “neutrally” rather than in a way that makes points about climate change.
