@DonaldJTrumpJr Well maybe if you weren’t such a coke-fried f***stain you’d know that she holds a Doctor of Education (Ed.D.) in educational leadership from the University of Delaware and NOT a medical degree …

En la @UdeA estamos llevando a cabo un proyecto con @techinnovationg para el desarrollo de #antivenenos específicos para la región. Hoy contamos con dos productos para la cobertura de accidentes por Viperidos y Elapidos en las américas. Trabajando para #beatNTDs

Snake antivenoms are effective treatments to prevent or reverse most of the harmful effects of venomous #snakebite https://t.co/J1SLOnPZUV

[Dr David Williams @toxinologist]

Manifestly disappointed that some so-called #snakebite experts continue to propagate myths, rumors and fallacies, and remain blissfully unaware that they are doing so.

The more time I invest into understanding the problem of #snakebite the more I'm realising I know very little. The problem is very diverse with its roots embedded into the institutional gaps. This highlights the need for preventive measures which are often underfunded.

@anaturalist @MayaGopalakris6 @bhartiomesh @dayalsnake @Priyanka_SHE @LabVenomics @anaturalist respectfully, just diesel fuel price rises alone have wiped out some producers cash reserves. They are already paid less than cost of manufacturing for their products thanks to NPPA. Making an antivenom costs a lot more than just a few horses!
