Oxfam: Survival of the Richest

The very existence of booming billionaires and record profits, while most people face austerity, rising poverty and a cost-of-living crisis, is evidence of an economic system that fails to deliver for humanity. For too long, governments, international financial institutions and elites have misled the world with a fictional story about trickle-down economics, in which low tax and high gains for a few would ultimately benefit us all. It is a story without any basis in truth.


It is a story, and an economic system that has left us without the tools or even the imagination to face this new age of crisis. It is a system that is largely discredited, yet continues to monopolize the minds of our leaders. It is a system that continues to work very well indeed for a small group of people at the top – predominantly rich, white men based in the global north.

ChatGPT on Sepsis

How is Sepsis defined?

Sepsis is a serious and potentially life-threatening condition that occurs when the body’s response to an infection causes inflammation throughout the body. It can lead to tissue damage, organ failure, and even death if left untreated.

Sepsis is typically caused by bacteria, but it can also be caused by fungi, parasites, or viruses. It can affect people of any age, but it is more common in older adults, newborns, and people with compromised immune systems.

Symptoms of sepsis may include fever, chills, rapid breathing and heart rate, low blood pressure, decreased urine production, fatigue, and confusion. If you suspect that you or someone you know may have sepsis, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible. Sepsis is a medical emergency that requires prompt treatment with antibiotics and other medications.

Is there a standard definition of Sepsis?

Yes, there is a standard definition of sepsis that is widely used in the medical community. According to the Sepsis-3 definition, sepsis is defined as “life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection.”

The Sepsis-3 definition identifies three levels of severity:

Sepsis: The presence of infection with suspected or documented organ dysfunction.

Severe sepsis: Sepsis with organ dysfunction, hypotension (low blood pressure), or hypoperfusion (poor blood flow to the body’s tissues).

Septic shock: Severe sepsis with persistent hypotension despite adequate fluid resuscitation (fluid replacement therapy).

It is important to note that the Sepsis-3 definition is based on clinical criteria, rather than specific laboratory tests or imaging studies. This means that a diagnosis of sepsis may be made based on the presence of certain signs and symptoms, rather than on the results of a particular test.
