Saw 2 other great posters on the topic at #CAEP22 Great to see that others are discussing this at their institutions

Powerful poster & study by @DarwinJimal & co-authors. Despite availability of professional translation services, significant underutilization in their ED. #healthequity #CAEP22

An outstanding morning for Day 2 of the #QHS EDI Forum. So impressed by the presentations from the working groups on outreach, admissions & research. Our students in particular are stars🌟. Feeling both challenged and charged up by the keynote from @DrIvanJoseph.

Last night before I intubated a lovely man with COVID, he insisted on calling his boss to explain why he wouldn’t be into work on Mon. He was so short of breath I had to finish the call for him. In the aftermath I realized how this job was a lifeline for him. It left me unnerved.

Remember Tani Adewumi, the Nigerian refugee kid I wrote about 2 years ago who won the NY State chess championship while in a homeless shelter? Now well housed (thanks to you readers!), he just won a championship and is officially a National Chess Master as a 10-yr-old 5th grader!

The lineups in Scarborough are a reminder that racialized & low-income communities want vaccines. They just lack access because of an inequitable vaccine rollout.

✖️ Vaccine hesitant
✅ Vaccine confident + limited access

Reallocate vaccines to hotspots or people will die.

Dad’s in a factory, mom’s in food processing. For immigrants like us, Jane and Finch is a dream, but we can't stay safe from COVID.

#Virtualteaching is not always easy, but somehow learning #nephrology was with such an exceptional teacher. Our class' little token of gratitude to Dr. Holland - as much as I love electrolytes, I think his reaction was the highlight of the block 😊 #ZoomSchoolofMedicine
