What most people do not understand is what effect Rubella has to a fetus.

I will not recount the horrible details here but I delivered one stillbirth with Rubella and hope to never see it again.

So-called “pro-life” people would surely do anything to prevent this, right?

"The federal government's decision to not provide Novavax's COVID-19 vaccine this respiratory virus season raises health equity concerns, experts and advocates say, as some Canadians look to the U.S. to get the shot."

Hold the fuck on, hold the motherfucking fuck on a second… are people actually out there talking about a Trump win being “inevitable”?
You’re talking about the twice impeached, quadruply indicted, 34-times convicted, adjudicated rapist, business fraud who kept our national security secrets in his f’ng bathroom and wanted to see his VP hanged for not breaking democracy?
The sociopath who golfed while thousands of Americans were dying a day and asked about injecting bleach is some kind of fucking “given”?
The “dictator on day one” who said he could shoot someone in the middle of Fifth Avenue and would inherit a Supreme Court that would actually let him? That guy’s winning is already written?
Really?
The child-separating racist who is promising detention camps and mass deportations?
The Putin puppet who’ll abandon NATO?
We’re just gonna surrender to that fucking guy and all the accompanying awful that comes with him?
Now? In JULY?!?
Because he’s got a pantyliner on his ear thanks to a twisted fuck who got his hands on a weapon we’ve all been trying to ban??

Are you fucking high?

And we wonder why we can’t find family doctors.

Medical graduates are choosing other options be it private care, moving away, in hospital contract paid work, consulting, or going in to specialty training. If I spend 30 minutes with a complex patient I am paid $245 as a specialist. How do we justify paying Dr. Tura as a family doctor seeing a complex patient for 30 minutes only $40? I get my hair cut in 15 minutes and it’s $45.

Retweet if you think all hospitals should #BringBackMasks

ICYMI, the various dystopian scenarios we've seen in sci-fi movies are here already, and they're *real.* Our new normal is what we thought was a fictional, nightmarish future. Some examples:

Do no harm.
Keep masks in healthcare.

“We can’t wear masks in hospitals forever.”

Actually, we literally could. In fact, we should. It’s a good idea. It reduces infection. There you go. Solved it.

Health care is in crisis and falling apart! We need someone to fix it!

Alberta: Lets give this potted plant a try.

From the DM’s…

So you know how the cafeteria services at the Royal Alex Hospital was taken over by a private company?

They’re uh…

They’re offering “meal deals”.

Not even Arby’s offers “deals” like these…

And they’re, you know…

Arby’s.

.@AbDanielleSmith opened the floodgates. Hate is legitimized and empowered.

Parents forcing kids to stay home today at the Homesteader, Queen Elizabeth and Fort Sask. Carholic schools in protest against pride. This never happened before.

Get used to it, Alberta.
