SURREAL: Each member of the board of directors of FH health, a for-profit company, made the max allowable donation to the Ontario PC Party. A few months later, the Ontario Government asked FH health to run 10 GTA vaccine clinics. Folks, this is what we call a rigged system.

Mehdi was my big brother and mentor in the cardiology program, and someone I could always go to for advice, help, and direction. His spirit of compassion, empathy, and kindness will live on through all of us @UofTCardio @Sunnybrook. Rest In Peace Mehdi ❤️ #SarcomaAwareness

Talking about second doses and getting to fully vaccinated. The province should be opening 2nd shot AZ to those who already got the 1st shot. We are not swimming in vaccine, we’re not even swimming in a pool this summer based on this guidance...

There's 5000 active cases of COVID in Peel. Add to that the undiagnosed probably closer to 30000. That's 2% of the population walking around with COVID. Taking AZ gives 60-80% reduction in COVID, a reduction in transmission, and reduction in hospitalization/death

This is the best one yet. Hands down. Because it’s funny. And also true. So true it actually makes me really very angry. Still funny though. #wellness #wellbeing #Resilience #medtwitter #burnout #mentalhealth #MentalHealthMatters @DGlaucomflecken

Impressive reduction in case reporting worldwide over Easter (I assume). I wonder if this will do bunny ears as it did over Christmas.

the calculus of structural discrimination: 90% of Covid cases are happening in 10% of neighbourhoods with 80% of all cases in racialized/low-income neighbourhoods that continue to have poorer access to vaccines than affluent neighbourhoods.

Nearly 1 million vaccines in the freezer as we barrel full steam ahead into a disastrous April. Nauseated watching this tragedy unfold.
#Ontario is leaving lives on the table by leaving vaccine in the freezer: 💉 in freezers: 985,132 💉 administered (total): 2,424,063 💉 administered/day (average last 6 days) = 73,797 Please stop the politicking and treat this like an emergency. Source: covid19tracker.ca/provinceva…

Our ECMO team at @UHN is incredible but ECMO is a last resort. We are seeing younger and younger patients who are critically ill in this third wave. We are canceling life-saving operations. Catastrophic and preventable. Please stay home.
