Here is the entire article (not kidding):

"A meningitis outbreak has killed 20 students in northern Nigeria, local media reported Wednesday (Feb. 28).

The death toll which remains provisional was announced by the Yobe state Education commissioner.

The outbreak has been recorded in some secondary schools in the state.

Over a hundred cases have allegedly been reported with three patients said to still be in an intensive care unit responding to treatment.

Meningitis is an infection which causes an acute inflammation of the outer layers of the brain and spinal cord. It can be life-threatening unless diagnosed and treated early.

Transmission is through direct person-to-person contact, including droplets from the nose and throat of infected people.

The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and Prevention shared Wednesday (Feb. 28) on its X account (formerly twitter) a meningitis vigilance map.

Indeed, weather conditions can favour prevalence of meningitis.

Most of cases in the country are reported across states in the northern region.

According to the WHO, the west African nation reported 124 deaths from meningitis between 1 October 2022 and 16 April 2023."

It doesn't even say which version it is, viral or bacterial.

I've been really enjoying Aragami recently, but it requires installing Proton GE to get the cutscenes to work after the first level. It's such a neat stealth game.

I was. As a boy, I had undiagnosed ADHD and had a terrible time managing my emotions. It wouldn't take much for me to cry, like getting out in dodgeball. It was easy ammo for the bullies. My parents were very controlling which stunted my social growth and I had very few friends. I remember one of the boys being dared to put his arm around my shoulders at lunch. I thought he legitimately wanted to connect with me until he started counting out loud. All I could do was put my head down in shame...I don't look back on my childhood very fondly. Things were rough.

It's so funny to me that we have to circumvent the site's paywall in order to read an article about pirating.

That illustration with the hook through the film reel is so clever, I love it.

I work in insurance and it's wild how many insurance carriers have pulled out of Florida and California due to natural disasters. The market is vastly shifting to smaller carriers in these regions.

Open gently, bees are sleeping.

Oh my god, Linux makes you fat.

They finally have the protection they need when they fall out of trees.

Happy birthday, you earless abomination!

Tuna can be dangerous

Can confirm.

"Blew pee everywhere"

When getting ready for the day, I put everything I'm going to use on the bathroom counter and put things away as I use each item, that way I don't forget to do something.

I check the mail and take out the trash / pull the bins up every day when I get home from work. I used to forget often, but making it a "do it every time" thing has made it a no-brainer.

I keep a reusable water bottle on my night stand, in the kitchen, in my car, and on my desk at work. I can't be bothered to carry a water bottle everywhere, so I have them everywhere. I do almost the same thing with phone chargers.

I like this post.

Have you reported the comment?

I miss my Pebble. :( I have yet to find an adequate replacement since it died.

ACAB, assigned crab at birth?

Once I was old enough to have a job, my parents would punish me by making the pantry off limits for a day or two, forcing me to use my own money for food.
