Hello everyone, how are you doing today? Hope you are having a great time. This will be Week 139, Edition 01 of our Weekly Featured Content.
So, last Saturday we had our hangout as usual, and it was just so much fun we did not want it to end. We are currently on the first topic for this week which is “IS HISTORY IMPORTANT?”.
But before we proceed with the details of the topic, let us take a look at the winners of the last topic which was “NOT JUST DRUGS”.
This topic was geared toward each member of the community telling us about a time when they took drugs and it had an adverse effect on them. It could be an accidental overdose, or even taking the wrong prescription that could lead to some major side-effects. Even life threatening.
We got to see the different consequences of taking drugs without the doctor’s approval, or the consequences of medical practitioners making mistakes in their diagnosis. This is something that can happen to anyone at all, especially in this day and age where self-medication is mainstream.
For this topic, we went through every entry post, and that is every post with the #hl-exclusive & #hl-w138e3 tag. And with the number of wonderful posts out there it was quite difficult to make a selection. But eventually, we did just that. And so, the posts that will be featured not just for their exceptional content, but also for their level of engagement with other authors will be listed below.
Featured Contents
MY MEDICATION MISHAP by @george-dee
This author told us about the time he took a drug without fully knowing what it could do to him. It was meant to make him feel better after a day of stressful work and his body was filled with aches. It turned out that the drugs had a high level of aspirin- something that he was highly allergic to. This triggered a reaction that could have made things worse for him if not for the timely intervention of the medical practitioners.
For this author, he shared with us his experiences with drugs and the side-effects he had got to see first-hand. He shared his experiences with drugs. His personal experience, his son’s experience and even that of a customer who stole drugs from his grandmother. It can be shocking how effective drugs can be especially when they’re taken for reasons they’re not designed for.
A DRUG MAKING THINGS WORSE @gwajnberg
For this author, he told us about how his body reacted severely to a treatment that he was being given. This happened in the hospital and under the supervision of the medical practitioners, which was why they decided to withdraw it. Anything else, things could have gotten worse for him.
All of the above contents were supported by our official curation account lazy-panda with an extra amount. The first 3 authors will receive 100 ECENCY Points [ Sponsored By Ecency Team (@melinda010100) ] and 1 $PANDAMINER each as a reward next Monday. These posts were selected because of their special attention to detail and how they followed the topic. There were a lot of good ones out there, but we just could not pick them all.
But then, we have some honorable mentions which are listed below:
Honorable Mention
GETTING HIGH ON VITAMINS by @emrysjobber
WRONG DRUGS ALMOST TOOK MY EYE by @intishar
These are posts that were also found to be quite exceptional as well
AND NOW, WE MOVE ON TO THE NEW TOPIC!
Week 139 - Edition 01 Topic
*“In many countries, History is not a subject that is taken seriously in the school curriculum. Is this an idea that you agree with? Do we really need to know about the achievements or mistakes of those before us? Will it make any difference in today's world? Do you feel the school boards should take history classes more seriously for our future's sake?”
