During the 1st & 2nd waves we were learning how to react. The 3rd wave taught us how the virus adapts. We have vaccines. Watch each province's 4th wave. By now, poor performance is absolutely indicative of failed governmet policy The Globe and Mail theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…

This bitch just told the WHOLE ENTIRE TRUTH.

🚨“The ban on guns used in some of Canada’s most deadly mass shootings would be repealed if the Conservatives form government, the party confirmed Friday…” theglobeandmail.com/politics/artic…

NEW: The CEO of private healthcare company hosted a fundraising event for Conservative Leader Erin O’Toole. O’Toole once helped promote the same CEO’s “radical” message about privatizing health services in Canada. pressprogress.ca/ceo-of-private… #cdnpoli #cdnhealth #canlab

“We can’t implement more public health measures because it will wreak havoc on people’s mental health!” What about the dozens of people whose doctors suspect they *may* have cancer but have now had their tests postponed due to Covid? Or does their mental health not count?

It seems likely that if AB/SK had implemented their vaccine passports a month earlier, they’d have similar vax rates as the rest of the country and have gotten there earlier, so as to avoid the degree of hospitalizations we’re seeing now.

If you don't believe in computer science, you don't get to work in computing. If you don't believe in baking science, you don't get to work in baking. So If you don't believe in health science, you DON'T get to work in healthcare. Get vaccinated, or get a new job. Fair?

Do vaccines slow transmission of the virus from one person to another? Why yes they do By a lot And that's why vaccine mandates protect not just that vaccinated But everyone else around them Here's a great Craig Spencer MD MPH explainer in The Atlantic theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

Sign of the Day...

Right away, when we formed government in 2015, we began reinvesting in Canadian research and repairing the relationship between government, our scientists and our citizens after a decade of darkness. Never has that been proven more important than during the pandemic.

Manitoba data. I mean… that’s pretty clear.

Doh. Wastewater in Regina currently shows the HIGHEST viral burden for our city EVER recorded. Current levels are ~3 times greater than that of previous highs during our Alpha surge last April. We're still right in the thick of Omicron. Please, stay diligent & be safe, all.

Note the difference.

Someone name one freedom. I’ll wait

A province-by-province look at excess deaths in Canada during the pandemic news.ubc.ca/2022/05/30/a-p… via UBC Media Relations @kimchspr: "We saw very little to no excess death in the Atlantic provinces, and quite high excess deaths in western provinces..." #ScienceUpFirst

Multinational science Delphi: - #COVID is airborne (100%); - indoor areas drive transmission (100%); - N95 masks help (96%); - public health pushes false info by denying airborne (90%); - vax alone can't end COVID (97%); - false info undermines social cohesion for response (99%)

Replace God with conspiracy theory & you begin to understand how insular & extreme they become.
