Paramedic-supported research projects, like the @CORSIP_Canada study, continue to improve our understanding of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, better inform how to protect ourselves against infectious diseases and instigate improvements for paramedic practices.

A highlight for me today at the #CAACongress2022 was @tmakrides presentation on the advances in secondary triage and low acuity pathways at @BC_EHS in Canada! Great presentation Tim and great work BCEHS!
#VPDNews: Several #VPD officers have been assaulted following arrest of a man causing a disturbance at the Carnegie Centre. Officers were in the area at @CityofVancouver's request to keep the peace during info campaign into structure removal on Hastings. https://t.co/AJA9ZGHpNA
Last night, Canada honoured me with a Governor General's Award and this video. I'm not crying. It's just maple syrup. @stevenpage is a friend and legend for wasting this amazing song on me. Thank you to Her Excellency, @GGCanada, Mary Simon. #GGAwards@CanadasNAC I'm a wreck.
This week we are grieving for the loss of two students, whose lives were horribly cut short. It is difficult to comprehend and express the enormity of the loss of these two bright and promising young adults, who were part of the UBC family.

After multiple cancellations and system failures, many newly graduated physiotherapists and longtime professionals say they have lost faith in the ability of the Canadian Alliance of Physiotherapy Regulators to offer its licensing exam. https://t.co/53kO7XHHWp
🇨🇦 I am SO PROUD of #BC#Paramedics - who today passed 1,000 enrolments in the @CORSIP_Canada study evaluating seroprevalence of COVID-19 #Antibodies in paramedics.
Incredible commitment to #evidence based policy by BC Paramedics 🇨🇦

Great to spend the morning with @ScottHaig@jlynnbolster and our wonderful Phlebotomists Tish and Lauren enrolling paramedics and collecting samples for @CORSIP_Canada!!
If you are a paramedic in #BC, #AB, #ON, #SK or #MB - it’s not too late to sign up!
WATCH: "We know some people have waited too long for a response and we sympathize and we apologize for that."
COO of @BC_EHS speaks after deadly #bcheatwave.
Thursday's @GlobalBC#NewsHour at 6 story:
We’re saddened to see the toll the heatwave has taken on the community. 53 sudden deaths were reported to VPD on Tuesday. Since Friday, police in Vancouver have responded to 98 sudden deaths. 2/3 of the victims are 70 years or older. #BCHeatWave
We are all shaken by the horrific, senseless crime against innocent victims in #LynnValley today. Our entire #BCEHS team, including our #calltakers, #dispatchers and responding #paramedics, are sharing in the grief and shock of the community tonight.
This afternoon I had the privilege of welcoming our newest cohort of #ParamedicSpecialists to their new roles within @BC_EHS
Im excited for what the future holds for these change makers!
