This such a significant statistic. Please consult you physician about getting vaccinated. Protect yourself and protect the vulnerable who can’t. #stickittocovid

[Saskatchewan Health Authority @SaskHealth]

In June, approx 81% of reported COVID-19 cases in SK were unvaccinated, or had their 1st dose less than 3 wks before. For fully immunized residents, that # drops to 1.8%. SHA encourages all residents to be immunized with both doses as soon as you are eligible.

[Scleroderma Sask @SaskScleroderma]

Always check with your physicians first but it is good to know that in many cases it is not only safe but recommended for #scleroderma patients to be vaccinated.

[Sindhu Johnson @SindhuJohnson5]

📣Individuals with rheumatic diseases are encouraged to get vaccinated! 📣 #sclerodema #sle #lupus #rheumatoidarthritis 🦠🥊

[Sjögren's Foundation @SjogrensOrg]

On July 23rd, we hope you will join with the Foundation to celebrate World Sjögren’s Day and the birthday of Dr. Henrik Sjögren, the Swedish ophthalmologist who first identified the disease. #WorldSjögrensDay
