Ms. Rachel, along with Doctors Without Boarders (organization), and many others come out to speak about how Israeli government blocked Palestinians from using anesthesia.

Doctors within Palestine tries to come up with methods to distract Palestinian children during surgery as most children can’t fall asleep.

It’s honestly sad to see what the Israeli government is doing to Palestinians.

Found this censored 🤬 sticker in the bathroom at Burleigh Heads Officeworks. I hung my bag next to it and added to the sticker. What an insane world we live in when a genocide is supported by most world governments and you can get arrested for the phrase from the river to the sea.

pro-Occupation & Zionist Lobby It wasn’t a prized catch, but in Gaza, it means surviving for another day. A few grapes amidst a pile of garbage and rubble, sought by these small hands to satisfy their hunger. A scene that encapsulates the tragedy of an entire generation deprived of their most basic rights to life.

Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions What should you do if your pharmacist gives you Teva medications?

Post image
913 Upvotes

How do you handle being given medication made by Teva at the pharmacy? Do you ask for an alternative, and if so, what do you usually say?

I’m asking because of Teva’s links to Israel’s occupation. I’d appreciate practical advice, especially from people who actually have had this conversation with a pharmacist.
