So lucky to have incredible #FamilyDoctors like @sohalv caring for Ontarians day in & day out. We need to ensure we retain these doctors & don't lose them to burnout or early retirement, the system is truly stretched. Check out @OntarioCollege plan ๐Ÿ‘‰ LifeWithoutADoctor.ca

Dr. @sohalv's favourite part of the job? Forming relationships with patients. Everyone deserves a family doctor but our system is stretched and doctors are burning out. We need a plan to make sure no one lives #LifeWithoutADoctor. lifewithoutadoctor.ca/ #onhealth #onpoli

For those who can't follow the chart - my colleage @sohalv put together this great google form. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1Fโ€ฆ Treatment is a part of our short term and long term future, but the first step knowing if you are eligible, getting a test, and accessing care.

Hereโ€™s a great online tool to determine eligibility for Paxlovid treatment in Ontario if you develop #COVID symptoms. It was designed by my Family MD colleague & @uoftmedicine 0T0 classmate @sohalv: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1Fโ€ฆ. Assessment centre info - covid-19.ontario.ca/assessmeโ€ฆ
Another reminder โฌ‡๏ธ about the @FamPhysCan webinar next week. Good timing as @COVIDSciOntario updated its recommendations on Paxlovid today:covid19-sciencetable.ca/wp-cโ€ฆ @DrKateJMiller @ASPphysician @MPaiMD @DavidJamesHarri @OCFP_President @afhto @DrJeffSisler @victorng_md @GovCanHealth

Individuals in Hamilton and region have access to therapies if they are high risk (in the groups below). The first step is getting care as early as possible after symptoms develop. Please seek help or testing if you fit into these categories.

Thankful that my 9 yo son could get his Covid vaccine today. Especially on such a difficult day with omicron. Not losing hope. We are ahead of last year. We need to ensure vaccine equity is addressed @MHPCN @davidkaplanmd @allan_k_grillMD @SharkawyMD @thisisourshotca

Dear Ontario, when the next lockdown hits in Oct/Nov it won't be due to not enough kids vaccinated. It'll be due to the same sloppy execution of real PH interventions (ventilation, smart indoor protocols, sick pay) that ignited the prior ones. Unacceptable.
Updated Ontario modelling puts case counts at 1,000 between August 27th and September 4th. Moderate projection puts Ontario at 2,000 cases by Thursday, September 16th.
