A&E Doctors, when a patient tells you they are living with HIV what they mean is "if you prescribe me any medication make sure it does not interact with my HIV meds" Thats all really. No need to start interrogating them where &How they got it. Honestly how is this important?

STUDENTS: REGISTER TO VOTE RIGHT NOW! The law is as follows. 1. You can register at home AND at your term-time address, if that's more convenient for you. 2. You can CHOOSE on the day where to vote. 3. But you can ONLY legally vote in ONE place on the day.
