Why is @UnityHealthTO denying the vaccine to pregnant healthcare workers??
The risk from COVID is probably higher than the risk from the vaccine
You are going to force pregnant nurses to work in the ICU without the protection of a vaccine?
Let them choose!
@BogochIsaac
@UnityHealthTO@SOGCorg And in the mean time - if you are unwilling to provide the vaccination to these populations, you had better also ensure that they are not exposed to COVID. Paid leave or offer the vaccine. Anything else is negligence.
@UnityHealthTO But guidance from every professional organization that looks after pregnant women says that this approach is wrong
You are a healthcare institution. You need to follow good medical practice, not government guidance. The @SOGCorg says your approach is wrong. Change it now.
Why are we waiting till next week before requiring a negative Covid test prior to entering to Canada? Why not now? We won’t capture all those returning during the busy holiday period. We have had a lot of time to think about this.
I dedicate this to @First10EM a physician/researcher who exemplifies wisdom and paints the clearest path to high quality evidence based practice for the rest of us mortals. Mad respect. @davidcarr333 @HumanFact0rz @EMCases @petrosoniak.

Bougie microskill: I teach passing the bougie along the finger pad rather than over the nail. False passage is less likely with more nerve endings in the pulp of the finger and a more proprioceptive information and a more oblique angle.
Cric training @emdeliberate arts and crafts style. Paintbrush gets learners out of the comfort zone, committed to their landmarking decisions and allows for immediate feedback from coach @Dr_Keefer. 6 part motor pattern further reinforced. @petrosoniak@HumanFact0rz@EMCases

The pigskin is screwed to the underlying wood around the 3D printed trachea. You can also play with how tightly you screw in the skin to create a more mobile larynx. @jon_kavanagh
Our 25$ Cric partial task trainer... only slightly lower fidelity then a cadaver but unlimited reps. Also can male more difficult with thicker pig skin or folding it over to create an obese neck. @EmICUcanada@emcrit @airwaycam @EMCases@davidcarr333@HumanFact0rz@petrosoniak
Learners teach their future selves by verbalizing the 6 part gross motor pattern and surgical micro skills to a partner filming them on their own phone. Excellent spaced repetition resource @ketaminh @airwaycam @emcrit@EMCases@davidcarr333@EMRAPGO@HumanFact0rz
