The real answer, if I remember, is that DS9 did not have Federation health functionality because it was a Cardassian outpost and was in pretty bad disrepair.

Maybe in the first year, but by season 6 they should be up to federation standards and even carrying rare medical materials such as bio-memetic gel.

That was also a plot point a few times related to the food replicators and the holodeck.

Moopsy: Did someone say bones?
Stamets@startrek.website 1 year ago
I have been randomly saying ‘Moopsy!’ for the past few days.
You are not making this any easier.

I just want to know what Paramount executive OK’d this episode but didn’t then immediately begin production on moopsy-related items to purchase. I need a moopsy plush!

So the Scottish-descended person was kind to the Irish-descended person and did her best to ease his pain, but the English-descended person had no regard for the Irish-descended person’s pain and acted cruelly?
SpicyPeaSoup@kbin.social 1 year ago
Tbf the English have no regard for English people's pain too.

We are an apathetic people. I could easily see that continuing into the 24th century!

To be fair, Julian isn’t exactly british. Judging by the name bashir, and his parents, he is likely supposed to have an Indian or perhaps middle eastern ethnicity, but I agree that his accent sounds very british to my euro ears.

He just wanted to elicit an emotional response from Chief.

It’s preventive medicine. If the chief doesn’t have an associated painful memory, how’s he going to avoid that activity in the future?

Your logic tracks because Bev didn’t follow that logic and it happened to him again

Reminds me of that US-whatever-armed-forces medic who would give drunk soldiers high-pressure saline enemas by stomping on an IV bag connected to their rectum.

Crusher probably didn’t have the combination of strength and precision to do it properly.
Bashir on the other hand had both due to genetic engineering.Stamets@startrek.website 1 year ago
Huh? Doctors do this today with no genetic engineering required. Also Dr Crusher was pretty capable considering the shit she beat out of people in the past.
bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 1 year ago
Her name is literally “Crusher”

That doesn't mean it's less damaging than using future-tech to do it nicely.

I bet O’Brien was happier with the quicker solution. “Jaysus Croist doc, just pop the bloody thing back in there!”

The Osteo-thingy-magic might be less painful and/or better for the patients in other ways and Julien just did not give a flying F

You have died of dysentery

I imagine this is exactly what Bashir was imagining when he found out he was to be stationed at DS9 (and this excited him)
