Happy to see one of the @McMasterForum evidence syntheses (in this case about the health and social impacts of evacuations and interventions that can help to mitigate their effects) being used to inform an article about the #LAWildfires. https://t.co/jIkI8RDMQK
The @latimes' @hsinsider recently published an article on how the Southern California wildfires affect high school students’ mental health. Great to see our rapid evidence profile was able to help inform this piece https://t.co/MhGn51YrN9

#Misinformation is false information that is spread, regardless of intent to mislead. #Disinformation is the intentional spreading of misinformation. This rapid evidence profile addresses what is known about the types of mis/disinformation practices https://t.co/VoJHXis1K6
Cancer systems are complex and require considerable communication & coordination across providers to ensure patients receive optimal care. This #RapidSynthesis examines approaches to support #cancer patients unattached to primary care https://t.co/OjigWhnY6j @cancerstratCA
We coordinated and collaborated with evidence-synthesis teams from across Canada to produce a suite of 10 living evidence syntheses about #COVID19 public health and social measures https://t.co/sCyeeWu2T1
#Evidencesynthesis teams across Canada collaborated with coordination from @McMasterForum to produce a timely and demand-driven suite of 10 living evidence syntheses on the effects of #covid19#PublicHealth and social measures. Full suite available here: https://t.co/fP6tLbXA1g
Our team at the @McMasterForum found that combinations of #publichealth and social measures have stronger effects in reducing #COVID19 transmission when more measures were combined, & when stricter measures of gathering restrictions or physical distancing were included
Our (@clamavelez and @lavisjn) @CIHR_IRSC funded living evidence synthesis protocol on the impact of strategies to mitigate misinformation in diverse settings and populations is now published in @BMJ_Open https://t.co/VsyLWKNOuG. We'll have a first version ready this fall!
