Today #COVID19 & #flu#vaccines became available to everyone in #Ontario. I got mine! I hope you will get yours as well!
Respiratory infections are trending as #4 cause of death in 2024. These 2 vaccines protect those more vulnerable around us, keeping our loved ones safe. (1/2)

'Saying to someone they shouldn't be depressed because others have it worse is like saying they shouldn't be happy because others have it better...' Invalidation of our feelings can be so toxic. Listening with empathy & compassion can be so dignifying, comforting & healing.
The #Niagara 911 centre is being inundated by people without power calling and asking for police rides to friends and family’s homes. We are not able to do that. Nor can we tie up 911 trying to explain this. Click the link for more information: https://t.co/SEvM4hLgAb
An FYI to St. Catharines residents - warming shelters will be open from 1:30-4pm at Market Square to provide relief before seasonal shelters open later today.
Suspect someone has overdosed? Call 911 and stay with them until @NiagaraEMS arrives. The Good Samaritan Drug Act can provide you some legal protection and you could save their life. #OPENNiagara#EndODNiagara

* Highest in winter months - no, December is usually a record low each year
* Must be mentally ill to die of suicide - no, mental illness adds to risk but 30 to 50% of people who die (depending on age) have no major mental illness prior to their death
