Now, the words and figures "with the exception of articles 2-c, 4-c, 5-c, 12-c, 13-c, 14-c, 17-c, 21-c and 22-c" have been removed from the Regulation, i.e. everyone will be recognised as fit under the "controversial" articles:
- 2-c – clinically treated tuberculosis;
- 4-c – viral hepatitis with minor functional impairment;
- 5-c – asymptomatic HIV carrier;
- 12-c - slowly progressive and non-progressive with minor functional impairment and rare exacerbations of anaemia, blood clotting disorders, purpura, haemorrhagic conditions, other diseases of the blood and haematopoietic organs, and some disorders involving the immune mechanism;
- 13-c - diseases of the endocrine system with minor functional disorders;
- 14-c - mild, short-term, painful manifestations of mental disorders;
- 17-c - neurotic, stress-related and somatoform disorders with moderate or short-term manifestations, with an asthenic state;
- 21-c – slowly progressive diseases of the central nervous system with minor functional disorders;
- 22-c – episodic and paroxysmal disorders, except for epilepsy, with minor impairment of organ and system functions.
Ukraine was invaded by a tyrant. The people have suffered for over a year, children have been slaughtered or lost limbs, civilians entombed in rubble, and the armed forces have lost tens, perhaps hundreds of thousands defending their homeland.
Now I'm not a violent man but I have to admit, in the face of all these poor people have suffered, reading your glib comment does make me feel like punching something.
