AZ>40 is a great move.

April 20-25 should be hotzone vax week in Ontario.

Divert supply to pharmacies in hotzone areas and have @ongov contract with employers to cover paid vax time for essential workers.

Empty the fridges.

This week my bill for 10 paid sick days will be debated in the Ontario Legislature.

Retweet if you support 10 paid sick days and send @fordnation a strong message.

I’ll never get over how we now have four effective vaccines for a virus we knew virtually nothing about a year ago but still won’t ensure everyone has access to clean drinking water or eradicate homelessness and poverty with forever known solutions.

I like the idea of being strong and kind. What a leader.

[Craig Spencer MD MPH @Craig_A_Spencer]

For months now, you’ve trusted me to tell you truth.

And as a physician & public health professional, there is no greater truth rn than this:

Racism is a public health crisis.

COVID has amplified structural inequities that have existed in our society & culture for too long...
