"Around 16 million working-age Americans have long Covid today.. Of those, 2 to 4 million are out of work.. 22% of people with long Covid were unable to work.. another 45% had to reduce hours worked.." It's a thought-provoking article. brookings.edu/research/new-d…

The harassment and intimidation of Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland and her staff yesterday in Alberta was disgusting and unacceptable. This incident will discourage good people, namely women, from entering public office. #ableg #yyc #yeg

COVID-19: Increased risk of dying from infection and sudden death This a long thread looks at several studies on death and neurovascular injury along with a whole bunch of sudden death examples of relatively young and healthy people found by Jess. 🧵1/

The internet is now being cut in Iran because they don’t want people to see things like this: a man slaps a woman and thinks he can calmly walk away. Where such actions were commonplace before, there are now dire consequences - significantly handed out by other men.

In the 7 years that my kids have gone to school they have never had an outbreak quite like this. AHS only reports if its 10% or more kids absent from a school. What ever happened to PCR testing, tracing and making covid vaccines available in schools?

This is what happens when one white kid with a single #BlackLivesMatter sign stands on the street in Harrison, Arkansas. ye this is who you placate for and want acceptance from.

Can you hear me screaming? Can you feel the grieving? My neighbour’s family lost a little yesterday. Four years old. From the flu. My faith in humanity is broken. The moral injury is real. #WearAMask #PublicHealthFailure Jason Copping #MaskUp cbc.ca/news/canada/ca…

It was here the other day when rode by, & now immolated. I searched the ashes for remains but only found clothing & shoes. A pallid relief. When the UCP tells you that opiate poisonings are improving it’s not because of their policies, it’s that these people don’t get counted.

Public Health Ontario (PHO) this past summer warned that COVID-19 infection can cause immune dysregulation. "A potential increase in acquired impaired immunity in the Ontario population..." ( publichealthontario.ca/-/media/Docume… ). H/T: Dr. Lisa Iannattone 19/

"You can't open beds if you don't have the people to actually look after patients in those beds," UNA President Heather Smith told CityNews Calgary. #abhealth #ableg #yyc calgary.citynews.ca/video/2022/12/…

I’m seeing people get sick, usually from Covid, but never get well enough to leave the hospital. They suffer cognitive issues, protracted delirium bordering on early dementia, strokes, heart attacks and pulmonary emboli. They have one set back after another.

Recently, I’ve heard some comments about how people should have to pay to go to the ER so that it makes them think twice about going to the ER for things that aren’t an emergency. As an ER doctor, I want to tell you why this isn’t a solution to ER overcrowding. /1 🧵
