When Simon give an injection using a hypodermic needle, he injects at the crook of the arm, or the inside of the elbow, if you will. This site is commonly used when you need to inject into a vein, as the veins are near the surface there. However, medical professionals always use a rubber tourniquet to engorge the veins and make them stand up so they're easy to hit.
Simon never uses a tourniquet. He must be really good at this, despite the fact that in hospitals and most doctors' offices, it's the nurses who give injections.
He is really good at everything!, did you miss Ariel? Simon is a medical god! He cures all...

Quote:Sorry, the O2 would be gone instantly, and the suit would pump it out just as fast. Less than a second all around.

The suit supply would replenish the oxygen. We hope the suit has a sensor and adds 02 at the rate it's used up. 'Course, with it leaking out the bullet holes, it's gonna go through the supply pretty fast, but Jayne only needs about 5 seconds.
