[02:32] IsambardPrince I was talking to my mom about that time over 20 years ago when one of her residents at the nursing home caused a scabies outbreak that followed everyone home and spread out from there. [02:32] IsambardPrince This woman was wearing long sleeve shirts and long dresses to hide the scabies bumps and she knew she had them she just didn't want to be treated. [02:32] *Goblin has quit (Quit: Leaving) [02:32] IsambardPrince So my mom, as a nurse, ended up bringing them home where they spread to Brian, my brother, her, and me while I was over visiting them. [02:33] IsambardPrince My feet started itching, and I had no idea they had scabies in their house because nobody told me that. [02:33] IsambardPrince So I started spraying my feet with athlete's foot killer. [02:33] IsambardPrince Then when that didn't work, I went online and found out this is probably scabies. [02:33] *Goblin (~use@s7msgb3dypfqc.irc) has joined #techrights [02:34] IsambardPrince So I got in the car, no health insurance (2004 I think), and went to the walk-in clinic. [02:34] IsambardPrince They said "We don't know it's scabies, see a dermatologist." and billed me $75. [02:34] IsambardPrince For nothing. [02:34] IsambardPrince I even said "Permethrin is safe, why don't we try that and if it doesn't work, we know it's probably not scabies." [02:34] IsambardPrince And they refused to do anything. [02:34] IsambardPrince So I went to a second walk in clinic. [02:35] IsambardPrince I got a doctor in his 90s, and he prescribed Kwell (Lindane). [02:35] IsambardPrince It was already banned in the US. [02:35] IsambardPrince But CVS had one more bottle of it. [02:35] IsambardPrince I did not know you were supposed to treat twice, and he only prescribed one anyway, and the pharmacy only had one and said they were shocked to find it. [02:35] IsambardPrince But at that point I would have poured Plutonium on my skin if they said it would help. [02:36] IsambardPrince Anyway, I treated with Lindane and then it seemed to go away, then it came back because there was no second treatment. [02:36] admfubar resistance is futile... https://techcrunch.com/2026/07/11/openai-bets-on-families-as-chatgpt-goes-deeper-into-households/ [02:36] TR Bot bets on families as ChatGPT goes deeper into households | TechCrunch [02:36] IsambardPrince By that time my mom admitted they had this going on in their house the whole time and they had invited me there for Thanksgiving without telling me. [02:37] IsambardPrince But the doctors at work were going around prescribing Permethrin to everyone "in the household" to try to get the outbreak that started with that resident contained. [02:37] IsambardPrince So my mother told them I was in their household and handed me two giant tubes. [02:37] IsambardPrince And that and washing laundry on "hotter than hell" for a few weeks finally got rid of them. [02:38] IsambardPrince When you have no insurance, things get bad fast. [02:38] IsambardPrince You go to the walk in clinic and maybe you can pay cash, but they don't want to do anything, so you lose cash and you usually just get a referral to someone who you can't pay.

[02:42] IsambardPrince Maybe they know what they're doing. [02:42] IsambardPrince When you have no insurance you can barely afford to talk to one doctor and then that's it and there's no more money.
