🚨Ontario is losing 319 acres of farmland daily. We're extremely concerned #Bill23 will further escalate the loss of #ontag farmland. #HomeGrown, #localfood matters. Once farmland is paved it's gone forever. Help share this message by signing our https://t.co/2aEOoSPMio campaign

1/ COVID-related hospitalizations continue to rise in Ontario & will disproportionately impact vulnerable people/at-risk communities - see trend below over the last month & perspective over the last 90 days.

Age is still a major risk factor for hospitalization (>70 yrs).

[Isaac Bogoch @BogochIsaac]

2/ How to mitigate these trends? Nothing new here:

*Vaccines: Significantly reduces severe infections

*Timely access to therapeutics: Keeps people out of hospital

*Masking: Helps protect the wearer & others

@katemckenna8 @FoodProfessor Experts didn’t “say” this, the dairy industry announced this. Beef is up 50% at retail (source: food prof) and down at farm gate for producers. Where is that story? Why isn’t the food prof advocating for beef producers instead of attacking dairy? Ideology. Our costs are up 40%.
