It’s basically for simple situations that actually doesn’t require “urgent care.”
It seems misleading at first glance.
I guess my mom is one of the people that was misled. I learned about it from her, and she mentioned it in a situation when it was, in fact, urgent.
I slept under the pillow that had some fur coming out of it, I inhaled some of it and it took me over an hour to try to cough it out. She suggested it when I was still unable to succeed.
By the way, that was two years before COVID started. So in this case it was, in fact, just fur.
