The world lost a wonderfully thoughtful and kind man yesterday.

@Larry_Svenson was an integral part of our province’s response to COVID.

On behalf of all Albertans, I thank him for his important work, and my condolences to his family and everyone at @GoAHealth.

An excellent newsletter about understanding “risk” of all kinds, focused on how to make real life decisions in the waning days of Omicron. I really like @dr_kkjetelina newsletter - this is an especially good one. Consider subscribing if you like it. https://t.co/ResDemoJDs

Excellent description of attributes of populism by @AmarAmarasingam

[Amarnath Amarasingam @AmarAmarasingam]

1. Thread on populism and the trucker convoy incoming!

My conversations over the last two weeks have gone something like this:

“Amar, what's this thing?
“A populist movement”
“But what do they believe?”
“It’s a populist movement”
“What do they want?”
“It’s a populist movement"

As of late, America's favorite pastime has been predicting when the pandemic will end.

Last month its course changed radically. Now some say we're approaching an "endemic" state with SARS2 reduced to a cold or flu. The hope is for everything to return to normal...

Will it? 🧵

A 🧵 on why I don't think 'following the science' / 'not following the science' is a good way to describe or criticise the government's covid policies
