It's the telethon, if so!!

Today is the telethon. Unless you have been on Mars the last 15 days, you are inevitably aware of the telethon and the controversy…

Why should we give then?

First because I want to.

Because yes, seeing children suffer, it inflates me. So if I can help.

Because donations come to feed a research not only on myopathies, but also on other diseases and new treatment techniques that can serve everyone

Because rare diseases suffer from the lack of interest of private pharmaceutical laboratories

Because opposing suffering is simply incomprehensible

And then above all because I give to whoever I want, no offense to Mr. BERGER!

It was enough for the dire….la suite

Second presentation today with many, many more questions than yesterday which a number that I did not expect (ha the power of the Internet!).

Small anthology of the fun at the common place:

-The H1N1 vaccine is dangerous because the virus that is injected is dangerous… no doctor?

-uh……. Not. There is no whole Virus in the vaccine. Just pieces of his wall.

The switcher's backpacker: the friend BootCamp

We have seen in previous notes of our series The backpacker of the switcher first of all the basic operation of Mac OS and in particular the Finder then the installation and the management of the applications and finally the setting of System preferences. Because this series is mainly aimed at Windows users who have just switched to Mac and that one of the major fears during its switch is not to find all of our applications (or equivalent) in Mac OS, we will see Today how to use the program provided by Apple to install Windows: Boot Camp. In a second step, we'll quickly see the virtualization solutions available on Mac OS.

It was enough to say!

Today I made a presentation of the situation of the H1N1 influenza pandemic with data from current developments as well as evaluation of vaccines, adjuvants……. I do not detail all this, I have already expressed myself in other tickets.

Part of the assembly seems reluctant to me, but especially interrogative to what I am going to say.

At the end of a half-hour presentation where I try to address most of the themes that have been debated, to respond in anticipation to all the questions, without concealing anything that we know, but also of what we do not know, I wait. The questions…..

We discuss the issue of curative treatment and its efficacy, we go back to the vaccine and how to approach it, we talk about the flu and its danger.

In the end, few questions. I am amazed and trying to revive the conversation.

It is at this moment that the word is loosened with regard to the media, of the policies, the way in which the information was relayed (ha yes the famous case of Guillain Barré, which was not one…), the organization of the vaccination centres, the fears that And above all the unpleasant feeling of "we are not told everything"…

Everyone's leaving. A large majority will be vaccinated. I am entitled to a few thanks for giving simple, clear and argumentative information.

It is therefore possible in France to speak frankly, without hiding anything and still get a satisfactory result!

Am full of optimism tonight……
