Aspirin thins the blood, and as such helps heart attack victims, stroke victims, and also helps preserve organs for transplant if they don’t make it. Medical professionals have said it’s about the only meaningful thing you can do for a victim outside of getting help.
No, there is no particular interaction with alcohol and aspirin, aspirin is a very old medicine whose effects are well known. Alcohol doesn’t mix well with anything really, but unless you have other issues going on, like already being on blood thinners, you want to take aspirin if you have chest pains, a heart attack, or a stroke.






There is actually a lot of unrest in China, most just never gets reported.
It’s not a new phenomena either, back in their imperial days they had a lot of local rebellions and revolts, and they similarly didn’t even record them unless they surpassed a threshold.
But they have a lot of incidents of villages throwing out their government officials, or hounding them during the party congress, or so I read, although that was around 2011 when I read that incidentally.
