This can be because there are chemicals in the skin that the leeches do not like. The nurses and doctors will try to help the leech attach during the treatment."<a href="https://www.schn.health.nsw.gov.au/leech-therapy-hirudotherapy-factsheet" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.schn.health.nsw.gov.au/leech-therapy-hirudotherapy-factsheet</a><a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/leeches" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#leeches</a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/hirudotherapy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hirudotherapy</a>

Maria De AgostoThey can always count on european States to back them (as we've seen plenty) and citizens to pay for their delusions and greed. As it is they're already planning ahead not only to prevent as much losses as possible and as much profit as they can grab.

Erik van StratenThere are some Gazans who follow me (probably because of my anti-Netanyahuistic toots).That is, they *claim* to be Gazan - while shouting that they need donations (like in <a href="https://infosec.exchange/@anasgaza11@mastodon.social" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://infosec.exchange/@anasgaza11@mastodon.social</a> - see the screenshot below).They *may* be telling the truth, or they may as well be like the leeches who pose as a Nigerian prince ("419", <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advance-fee_scam" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advance-fee_scam</a>).This Gazan man also claims "Computer Engineering 🖥" but has not been involved in any discussion that would add evidence to their claims.I am extremely sorry if I'm wrong and they're real, desparate, Gazans who really could use some money, but I will mute all of these persons.They either should not ask for funding, or shoud do a LOT better job proving their authenticity. It's just way too easy to fake an identity in order to fill your pockets, robbing people who DO care about those being denied their human rights.<a href="https://mastodon.social/@anasgaza11" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@anasgaza11</a><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Leeches" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Leeches</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Cockroaches" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Cockroaches</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Authentic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Authentic</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Impostor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Impostor</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Authenticity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Authenticity</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Impostors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Impostors</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Gaza" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Gaza</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/GazaGenocide" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GazaGenocide</a>
