@kenjaques I find it interesting how they justify their misinformation and mistakes on the basis that covid19 is a new virus.

Yes, but viruses, pandemics, epidemics are not.

Are their biases obvious?

Why do we let them to continue to run the show?

[Dr. Jerry Green @DrJerryGreenMD]

@DrSamirSinha Thanks for your stand on geriatric care in the media recently. Wondering if you know that the Cpso is placing such extreme requirements for iMDs to help during covid19 that few qualify? Many are eager to help.

What effect will washing hands or social distancing have on aerosolized viruses?

[Dr. Jerry Green @DrJerryGreenMD]

There is some evidence that the method of covid19 spread is by droplets and aerosols. The latter causes virus particles to float in the air.

So why is the government focusing on droplet spread and not on aerosol?

Raising ones resistance will protect against both.

[Dr. Jerry Green @DrJerryGreenMD]

@maureentaylor31 Thanks. But it is toxic. What do you think of non toxic methods such as vitamin c which has a large amount of evidence in standard medical journals as having anti viral properties?

[Dr. Jerry Green @DrJerryGreenMD]

@maureentaylor31 I liked your appearance with Brian Goldman. Wondering what experimental treatments you were referring to? Thanks.

Speaking up is not easy. As many outspoken doctors, scientists, public health officials, and researchers around the world know, it can come with negative consequences. But it is critical that we do so, @DrSamirSinha of @SinaiHealth writes. #Contributor https://t.co/BKBf9g25Kc

I hear that no iMD has been accepted because the requirements are too strict!

Are the cpso conditions and requirements realistic or reasonable? 30 day limit, pass exams within last two years, find a mentor etc. How many of the 13K Ont international MDs will be eligible or interested in applying? Risk your life? No financial compensation? #covidontario

Interesting.

@kenjaques Why is there a bias against this?

[Dr. Jerry Green @DrJerryGreenMD]

SARS Commission report by Archie Campbell also made many recommendations to address a future pandemic.

[Dr. Jerry Green @DrJerryGreenMD]

@kenjaques How will someone like this be able to assess articles in the medical literature as to the amount of evidence to support efficacy? Also, there are many treatments used every day that lack evidence of efficacy.

[Dr. Jerry Green @DrJerryGreenMD]

@kenjaques Will a covid19 vaccine correct the causes of this pandemic? e.g. our invasion of animal habitats, our poor health status, underfunding/cutbacks of the health care system, poor advanced preparation, our shortage of doctors, ignoring the SARS commission findings etc?

[Dr. Jerry Green @DrJerryGreenMD]

@kenjaques Tommy Douglas, your grandfather, brought in doctors from the UK when Saskatchewan doctors went on strike against universal Medicare.

[Dr. Jerry Green @DrJerryGreenMD]

@picardonhealth @globeandmail @CPHO_Canada It is good to change advice based on recent info. Some doctors are using vitamin c with covid19 patients. Why doesn’t Dr. Tam advise on this?

[Dr. Jerry Green @DrJerryGreenMD]

@classicexter There are a large number of articles in the standard medical journals showing that vitamin c is useful for cancer. I am disappointed that no government is advising on the use of vitamin c for the prevention of covid19.

[Dr. Jerry Green @DrJerryGreenMD]

@RealKiefer @DorisGrinspun So sorry to hear. Your mother was a tireless health advocate. Your grandfather was a brave politician who set up a system for the benefit of patients. Cutbacks have hurt the system and will likely hinder our ability to handle covid19.
