They're literally cancelling surgeries at children's hospitals. But wearing a mask or avoiding unnecessary gatherings right now is too much to ask of grown-ups.

When people go through terribly hard life experiences, other people often say, “I honestly don’t know how you did it, I couldn’t cope with that”. The truth is, no-one copes, they just survive anyway they can, one day at a time. There’s no special skill that makes it better.

BREAKING; Sept 20 Hearing from educators and parents whose classes and staff are getting sick in record numbers and saying "We've never had a start so bad in terms of absences" Maybe if they all release a video singing "Bohemian Rhapsody" this will get noticed?

Mask wearing is literally the same type of thing as refrigerators, sunscreen, bug spray, spaying your pets, cancer screening, seatbelts. NONE of those things work perfectly all the time. But ALL of them help reduce harms some of the time. Harm reduction is the goal.

lots of people blaming their symptoms on a cold, allergic reactions or just “being under the weather.” it’s COVID.

To every student, parent, teacher, education worker, support staff member, principal, VP, and trustee in Ontario: you have been through a lot in the last couple of years. I hope the summer is good to you and that next year will be better. 💕

I really wish people cared as much about the long wait times we are seeing in healthcare (e.g. in our Emergency Departments) as they do about the long wait times we are seeing at airports.

We may be witnessing the end of the pandemic phase of #COVID19. But we are sleepwalking into a nasty endemic phase by ignoring the need to reduce risk of exposure & reinfection. We keep waiting for it to be "just another virus." It ain't & never was.
