@MidWestTO_OHT
@VaxHuntersCan Still mad as hell 🤬. Some of the things I witnessed at yesterday's 1st dose vax clinic for the Chinatown & Kensington Market communities (M5T): 1) Hoards of white, privileged POS rolling up on a racialized, lower-income community in luxury cars...

[Joe Banh @JoeBanh]

SHAME on the people who came down to @CecilCentre today demanding 2nd doses when the pop-up clinic was for 1st doses for one of the lowest vaccinated, racialized communities in TO (M5T). Relentless verbal harassment & intimidation of staff & volunteers. Ur disgusting people. 🤬

Retweet this if you agree that the pandemic isn’t over simply because your government is pretending it’s over.

👏🎉✊ The European Parliament has just made history, by passing the landmark vote on the Digital Services Act.

This can set the global standard for regulating Big Tech and protecting people online! We will defend this outcome in the next stage of negotiations. #DSA

Just days after @TheTorontoSun launched a shameless attack on him & others colleagues, now a desperate, repugnant campaign to threaten the very people who have sacrificed endlessly with no agenda but caring. They will not be intimidated. #IStandWithDrDosani

[Dr. Amit Arya @AmitAryaMD]

A bounty has been put on @NaheedD just for advocating for public health & safety during a pandemic.

It’s a reminder that health workers are not just battling COVID-19 but also anti-science rhetoric & right wing extremism.

Horrific.

Society doesn't function without cooperation and compassion. As much as our entire culture privileges individualism and romanticizes "me and mine against the world," the truth is that it's literally collectivism or death. The pandemic should have made that clear, and yet ...

Retweet if you agree that our governments should send a package of rapid tests & N95 masks to every household, every week, for free.

[Tyler Watt 🇨🇦 @tylerwatt]

I’m sick and tired of having a government who comes up with last-minute pandemic responses that are solely based on their chances of getting re-elected. Ontario deserves so much better. @fordnation you caused this chaos. #onpoli #VoteFordOut2022

Your Sunday reminder that:

The global COVID-19 pandemic is not over.

Global examples have proven that we can’t vaccinate our way out of this pandemic.

Global examples have proven 💉are 1 layer of Swiss cheese for an effective pandemic response.

More layers=more protection.

JUST IN! 24 hours ahead of #IUCNCongress, our hard-hitting ad in the @FT calls on President @EmmanuelMacron to support the goal to conserve at least half the planet.

Will he listen to the science, Indigenous people and marginalized communities and vote for #Motion101ForHalf?

Yep. Exactly.
