@sleepdiplomat @DrCanapari Would love to see the evidence on "self-soothing"? So much harmful misinformation in this podcast. Totally appropriate & normal for babies to be soothed/fed to sleep way beyond "a couple of months" old🙄
"For older people, the thing they value the most, above everything else, is their independence. When you understand that dementia is something that robs you of your ability to live independently it becomes the greatest threat to independence" @DrSamirSinha Listen to the podcast🔻
💯...such a covid-vaccine-specific phenomenon that as a pharmacist I have found v interesting. The vast majority of pts would never question/care to know the manufacturer of their meds.

Hey #Physios! Do you work in #HomeCare and want to identify who is at high risk for #Fracture in the next year so you can help prevent it? We got you covered. Come learn about the Fracture Risk Scale - Home Care at tonight's 6:30pm podium presentation #physiocancongress2021
Excellent article explaining omission bias and reference dependence in relation to vaccines and risk. Maybe if people were better informed about such cognitive biases & how these can affect our perception of risk of an action vs inaction this would decrease vaccine hesitancy
How the human mind evaluates risk of action & inaction when it comes to COVID-19 vaccinations, & what you can do to overcome common false reasoning tendencies & make a rational decision. @JoshuaLiaoMD @UWDeptMedicine @UW_VSSL https://t.co/6x56SdalHm
We are seeing patients admitted to ICU with #COVID well after shot 1 and before shot 2.
One isn't vaccinated until fully vaccinated.
Given the significant delay between shots 1 & 2, clear communication on how to conduct oneself b/w shots from public health leaders would help.
Ontario announces pregnant people can now register for COVID-19 vaccination appointments. Pregnancy is now included among the 'highest risk' category in Phase Two of the province's vaccine rollout. Previously, pregnant women had been in a lower-priority category.
Airborne transmission is the dominant route of spread of COVID-19. If you have to be indoors with ppl other than your immediate household, read & follow the guidelines. Adequate ventilation is key #COVIDisAirborne
NEW VENTILATION GUIDELINES—Canada🇨🇦 now stepped up with 2 new key sets of ventilation & air disinfection guidelines for both ‘at home’ and for ‘long term care homes’. Ventilation guidelines means 🇨🇦 acknowledges airborne transmission is critical. #COVID19

AstraZeneca’s covid-19 vaccine has rarely been out of the news—and the headlines show no signs of abating. Jacqui Wise explains how miscommunication and politics created a nightmare for the company and the global vaccination effort https://t.co/E0wK4fCKSk
Today is #NationalCaregiverDay. Caregivers play a vital role in our health system & the lives of many older adults but are often inadequately supported. Timely & useful info is a key piece to preventing mental + physical strain

#SleepAwarenessWeek - fitting as I just finished #WhyWeSleep by @sleepdiplomat. Highly recommend. Equal parts interesting and scary. Sleep affects virtually all aspects of physical & mental health in a huge way.
