We keep hearing how our healthcare system is collapsing (which it is). But that does nothing to improve our understanding.
Let’s use a hypothetical emergency department visit to highlight the disaster that is happening every day around the country.
Here’s a thread 🧵:
@AirCanada no food vouchers, help for transportation, accommodations. Wow. We aren’t rebooked until later this afternoon. More than 12 hours later. Have friends who were cancelled due to a snow storm before and were given all of these things. How can we make this right?
@AirCanada trying to get home and flight cancelled due to “bad weather” in Toronto. Not even snowing. Rebooked tomorrow AFTERNOON and no offer for hotel, taxi, nothing. So unacceptable.
SUNDAY MAY 30: A reminder that our vaccine clinic at Downsview Arena is CLOSED today.
Also a reminder that it’s been a long week of verbal harassment and other abusive behaviour from people trying to bully their way into getting 2nd doses.
This is not OK.
It is now open season for #COVID19 vaccination in Ontario.
Everyone 18+ is eligible to book anywhere in the province.
Fantastic.

Context is important.
The risk of complications from dexamethasone, tociluzimab, fentanyl, propofol, rocuronium, invasive mechanical ventilation and proning are likely much higher than the risk of any complication from a life-protecting vaccine such as AZ.
More than ever ppl rely on the internet to stay connected - especially in this pandemic.
Today's outage is a symptom of a larger problem.
The Liberal govt must promote real competition instead of protecting the profits of telecoms giants like Rogers, Bell and Telus.
[ON] 40+ FOR ALL OF ONTARIO!
We are hearing MANY reports that Walmart, Shoppers, Pharma Save, and other pharmacies ARE BOOKING shots for 40+ starting TUESDAY. Check their WEBSITES and PHONE THEM!
We won't stop till every shot is done! #COVID19#COVID19Vaccine#COVID19ON#vhcON
[ON] 40+ can't find a PHARMACY? Use the provincial pharmacy locator! It will show all the pharmacies nearby! DO NOT GIVE UP! There are soooooooooo many shots out there!

I’m proud to share that yesterday, we crossed 150 million shots in just 75 days of my Administration — on our way to hitting our goal of 200 million shots by my 100th day in office.
#COVID has taken my patient.
Let her story become a force for positive change.
Protecting essential workers must be the immediate term priority.
Mobilize and Advocate.
Let your MPP know that protecting those most at risk of getting #COVID is the best way to protect us all.
my favourite pasttime has become creating shopping carts on every site that sends me a marketing email and then letting it sit there for weeks until I'm forced to restart my computer and I lose the tab...
