Such a mess.

When Australia hotels are safer than Ontario Hospitals... Time for our leaders to recognize #COVIDisAirborne

It’s time to actually care about Healthcare Workers safety Doug Ford Christine Elliott Public Health ON Ontario Medical Association Canadian Medical Association Ontario Nurses' Association Ontario Hospital Association

I think the pivot to #saferworkplaces also needs to happen: -KN95 or N95s -Improved ventilation -safe places to eat/take breaks -max capacity per room based on CO2 levels

This tragedy should never happen + we need leaders who care about HCW safety: -fully #vaccinateHCW -enact policies that reflect #COVIDisAirborne -build us new hospitals! 4pts per room + hallway medicine = outbreaks Thinking of this nurse + their family. This is preventable

Great explanation as to how #mRNA vaccines work. Note that the cell which produces the spike protein endogenously in response to the vaccine is destroyed by macrophages. Our #DNA is not permanently “altered” by the vaccine. #CovidVaccine

Unvaccinated, healthy, mid 20’s…COVID-19 positive. ICU, ventilator…life forever changed. Please, please, please get vaccinated. #Covid_19 #ThisIsOurShot

Ahmed Alsakha David Barbic Alas, that not all listen. I’ve had young pts saying “screw it, if I get sick, I get sick !!” They don’t understand what a hell long COVID is, even if they don’t die of COVID. It’s now a preventable disease. Life is precious, get the vaccine !

So, who knew that dimenhydrinate (Dramamine, Gravol) is actually two drugs? A short drug history thread. /1
