Gearing up for #ASBMR2024 in September? Our Toronto group @OsteoUHN has these #TOP10 recommendations for things to do in #Toronto. I will be releasing these every Thursday (except for when I'm away, July 25 and Aug 29), leading up to
@ASBMR . So start planning! @d_whittier 1/

Here is the VITAL study for reference:

The recently published VITAL study concluded that vitamin D supplementation did not reduce the risk of fractures. @OsteoporosisCA recommends that those with osteoporosis continue with their vitamin D supplementation. See full response here: https://t.co/ybTW25a31s

@IlianaLega Thanks for this, Iliana! They wouldn't give me a 21d appt but said ok to 28. But then they said they can't do the bookings at this time beyond Dec 28. Advised me to try again in 2 days.

Are you an endocrinologist who is confused as to how to send a genetic test in Ontario? I don't blame you! Our system is still paper-based, with multiple requisitions and confusing pathways to diagnosis. Use this handy endocrine cheat sheet as a start: https://t.co/hUCF1SNr81

[Billy Silverstein @WKSilverstein]

Less than 20% of patients with osteoporosis are treated after their initial fracture. Our (@JonZipursky, @steve_shadowitz) @JAMAInternMed Teachable Moment describes consequences of this practice and strategies to close the "osteoporosis care gap" https://t.co/jBYGufy1c6

The final tally for #TorontoVaccineDay! A great collaboration of all those involved in #ourwinningshot.

[Joe Cressy @joe_cressy]

FINAL COUNT: 26,771 doses.

Toronto just set a world record for the most vaccine doses ever administered in a single clinic.

Be proud, Toronto. This vaccination campaign is our moment. It’s a rally together moment. Let’s get our city vaccinated. #TorontoVaccineDay

[Adrian Lau @adrlau]

It's 25000 doses... And more to come! #TorontoVaccineDay
