I think it might if people understood just how helpful masking can be for liberating hospital beds in Canada and preventing COVID deaths.
If 80% of us mask (as we did this time last year)
by Feb 3 we could liberate 54,000 hospital beds and prevent 4,000 deaths

6. Pay attention to early warning signals and stop assuming that the pandemic is almost over (being wrong six waves in a row is enough).

I wonder if people realize that 40% of all COVID deaths in Canada have now been of people younger than 80.
Or that >75% of deaths of people younger than 80 have happened since vaccines became available.
Or that 40% of deaths of people younger than have happened during Omicron.

Doug Ford broke the Star’s fact check.
We fact checked everything the Ontario premier said for a week. A lot of what Ford said was uncheckable. thestar.com/politics/ontario…

So seems @LifeLabs are billing for a number of routine formerly covered OHIP tests. Please retweet and let's get what's being charged for? Also anyone know if they donated to Ford?

On recent dog walk, got chatting to a lady I'd met a few times:
Her: Are you holidaying abroad this year
Me: I can't because of Covid & immunosuppressed family members
Her: But Covid is over now
Me: 1 in 45 people are infected & 1,000 ppl a week dying
Her: Not now though

When are they going to take the gloves off in the Ontario election with simple, clear (and true) messaging? It’s begging for it, and Ford is vulnerable

If we want to avoid the generational impact of #LongCovid that will lead to cognitive, neurologic, respiratory & other serious functional impairments for so many, it's time to stop trivializing getting infected as no big deal. bit.ly/37tEOPF 22/

Comparing Canada's COVID deaths in 2021 and 2022 for the first four months:
January-April 2021: 8,401 deaths
January-April 2022: 8,716 deaths
I know we all want to be done with COVID...but sadly, COVID isn't done with us.

A COVID story, with permission:
A healthy healthcare professional friend in her 30s (vaccinated x 3) successfully avoided COVID for two years by taking sensible precautions within her control, assisted by sensible collective protections in place for much of this period.
