The management is always successful in making people feel guilty about their breaks. Even though there is sufficient evidence that taking breaks can increase efficiency in work

Not really. Just change jobs if they have a problem.

If you're a billionaire and your victim has $1000, it's easier to take $500 away from them than to make another billion, because ultimately only relative wealth matters to human beings. If you're the victim, it's better to perform poorly by not taking breaks because you can claim to have done nothing wrong while punishing your owner by performing poorly. Working extremely hard without producing actual results is basically a form of quiet quitting which is immune to detection because all metrics point towards the quiet quitter being extremely productive.

Being a junior doctor I completely agree with you about the work environment. You are always under the pressure that someone might die because of your break.

It could have multiple meaning if you don't read the article

Don't stress about it too much - the fact that you actually linked the study and not some science journalism article puts you way ahead of 99% of posts I see on this sub.
It's good to be cautious when asserting things as factual, so you could definitely add "Study finds ...", but I personally think it makes it more wordy for information that is assumed when you're linking a paper directly.

>More than 100,000 people die each year from not taking medications as prescribed
Does this include people who cant afford their medications?

If anyone wants to clarify a better way to write it out, I'm all ears. Newer to this platform and more familiar with Twitter (where editorialization abounds).
My thought was just that most people wouldn't get the core info out of a long JAMA article, since the unique addition of this study as it was circulated on medtwitter, was the low rate of hospitalization. So thought some editorialization was necessary.

I'm newer to Reddit, so if that would be preferred I'll take note. I didn't want to state it as fact, rather than study finds, because this study was fairly unique when compared to previous research.

It only works if they can read and if they choose to read the label.

You probably right but I never got to work in anyplace with something approaching sanity. So I'm sayin my peace not to disagree with you just frustration really. The general trend whether physical labor or not has always been the lazy people get the same pay and the light work and anyone dumb enough not to be lazy got the hard work and writeups for not meeting impossible deadlines set on averages not accounting for the hard work. Definitely not sayin you're wrong just sayin good ideas seem to get real lost in translation a lot by people who don't have to work all that hard in practice, and they conveniently never get the consequences. Anyone can ever fix that damn problem I say vote them for president.

Same in US. No-one out here free-styling directions.

I bet when you go talk to your pharmacy you will find out that your prescription from the doctor reads the same as the directions on your bottle.
Retail pharmacists in the US aren’t going to, and cant, freestyle your directions.

Yes, whatever the doctor sends over to the pharmacist is what is placed on the bottle. The only time this changes is when the dose is incorrect and the pharmacist calls to get it changed. OP either has a dr that is giving incorrect directions to them in person and it is getting corrected later (happened today for my wife’s ear-drops) or is giving verbal directions as to what they want them to take and putting directions on the prescription different so that OP can get a longer day supply for one copay. (Technically illegal).

Reply to comment by FwibbFwibb in 8 out of 10 preterm babies suffer newborn jaundice. Therapy involves exposing the baby to blue light, however, there are no standard guidelines on the precise color of light, irradiation power and duration. Scientists suggest fluorescence measurement will improve jaundice testing and therapy. by Skoltech_
With my recent experiments in solar cooking, I know there is not a relationship with the air temperature and the solar light frequencies needed for this treatment. I was able to easily cook scrambled eggs in an iron pan when the outside temperature was around 36 degrees Farenheit.

> So now I need to note my dosage myself? It's ridiculous.
Don't the pharmacists write the doctor's prescribed dosage onto your card-boxes the medicine comes in?
That's what happenes here (Central and western Europe).
The printed obstruction have a section "recommended dosage, if not otherwise prescribed by your doctor".
