TOMORROW is #August1stTweetOutDay. Join me, @MzSgtPepper & the WHOLE WORLD in NOT tweeting for 24 hrs. I won't dignify accusations that this is a political statement when it is, in fact, simply an experimental STUNT because I'm bored & wanna see what happens. #TweetlessTuesday

Why not just give these out to people? Mail one to every home? Would be very useful for fall/winter and help guide early treatment with antivirals for lots of higher-risk people.

The federal government is sitting on a stockpile of 39 million extra rapid tests for COVID-19 and is struggling to get rid of them without chucking them in the trash, an internal Health Canada memo shows. cbc.ca/news/politics/federal…

I can't get over tbe fact that, even after an arrest was made, an Ontario woman was publicly ridiculed by Sarnia police for stealing some salsa & tortillas, while Loblaws celebrates profits of over $508 million in just three months. Our society needs to be resuscitated fast.

Far more often than not, those who consciously or unconsciously uphold antisemitic tropes, when facing accusations of same, respond with denial & anger, which is why this is such a rarity - a person who trafficked antisemitism taking time to reflect and learn. Yasher koach Martin

88,803 more people died than expected in Canada (excess deaths) from Jan 25/20 to May 5/23. Nearly double the deaths of WWII or the 1918-20 flu pandemic. Today @bmj_latest launched a series explaining why Canada's COVID response should be investigated. bmj.com/canada-covid-series

Jennifer is a fellow ER doctor and valued colleague severely affected by Long Covid. Many others who are less willing to share their stories publicly are similarly affected. If she, as a doctor, is having trouble navigating health care, treatment and life insurance policies, what chance do average people have? What chance do you think you have?
Denied life insurance due to #longCOVID. Pretty sure the insurance underwriters understand the risks of COVID better than public health and the general public.

🚨🚨Bad news…real time Disability Data from US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) rose 857k in June to a new all time high of 34.15 million. The rate of change is accelerating again. If this was a stock it’s a break out chart and reacceleration of trend. Both employed women & men hit new highs as well.
