I had the pleasure of moderating this incredible session by @Brian_M_Wong demonstrating how outcomes can be transformed for LTC residents with the right team, vision and data. Showed us what is possible when using fundamental QI concepts. #MacQI2022 . See you next year!

Great first #MacQI2022 plenary by Dr. Brian Wong @Brian_M_Wong! Always at the leading edge. Definitely lots to think about with regards to Macro-level QI - policy change, laws, billing/procedures for new ways of doing!

Significant immune response (antibody & T cell) in those who received a 1st dose of AstraZenca's #COVID19 vaccine followed by an mRNA vaccine for dose 2.
Data from Germany, recently published in @NatureMedicine 👇
(Many Canadian's took this approach. Solid plan...thanks, NACI.)

A career in medicine is frequently viewed as a barrier to #motherhood. Most studies evaluating #pregnancy and their outcomes in #physicians are based on self-reported surveys, but @mccusimano, @AndreaSimpsonMD and team wanted to know more than surveys could provide. 1/

Frailty is highly prevalent in patients with kidney disease and is associated with morbidity and mortality. This study found that frailty prevalence varies by measurement tool used, and agreement between these measurements is fair to moderate bit.ly/KID0001892021@Filtere… @SeyMD

The data from England is concerning - while there is still lots to learn. Bottom line: aim for as high vaccination coverage as possible and get those second vaccines into arms as quickly as possible - this will protect us from a major wave with B.1.617.2 in Fall.
THREAD latest on B.1.617.2 variant in England:
B.1.617.2 (1st discovered in India) is now dominant in England. Here is a thread summarising latest PHE report and Sanger local data.
TLDR: it is NOT good news. 1/7

🇨🇦 is now receiving larger scheduled weekly shipments of #COVID19 vaccines, with 2.9 million mRNA vaccines arriving this week.
Pfizer increasing weekly shipments from 2 to 2.4 million.
Time to expeditiously get 1st & 2nd doses in arms.

We show what we value with what we reward.
If academic institutions value creating a safe work environment for everyone, then they will stop rewarding bullies and harassers with tenure, promotion, retention packages, and endowed chairs.
Some things are complicated. This is not.

COVID-19 and schools in the two countries I love, Canada (purple) and Switzerland (yellow). In🇨🇭, my kids would have missed 2 months of in-person class in wave 1 -🇨🇭 kept schools open ever since despite brutal 2nd wave. In ON? >6 months of missed in-person school, and counting...

Being an infectious disease physician, receiving my #COVIDVaccine was a day that I looked forward to during the pandemic. I've said it before, the best shot is the first one offered to you. Please get your vaccine & encourage others to help stop the spread. #ThisIsOurShotCA

Thanks @zchagla for this. Let's just all take a pause...

We’re in a vaccine rollout in the largest public health emergency in recent history - with no local production.
Breathe - it’s not smooth and isn’t going to be, but vaccines are going out by the day, and normalcy is coming
