#FluTruxKlan is the only way to tag this entire "freedom" trucker bullshit, where their gofundme is linked to right wing groups and anti-government rhetoric. thank you to the 80-90% vaccinated truckers for doing your part. the media needs to stop giving these grifters a platform

[Justin Lee @DailyJLee]

People out there masking, sprinkled in, I see you. You are literally pillars of the public health community that is so fractured and broken. You’re holding up the fort, shingling the light, showing the way out, and beating back R0. Every action of infection control counts, thanks

I wasn’t at either event so didn’t see what happened but… today in St. Andrews, NB, PM Justin Trudeau took 11 questions from journalists over about 28 minutes; In Ottawa, CPC leader Pierre Poilievre took two questions, for a bit more than 2 minutes. https://t.co/ehCjt5Ptm8

@ABDanielleSmith @JustinTrudeau take educated out of that sentence because clearly it doesn't apply to you. you all done with this tired misquoting of what he said because we're getting real bored of this shtick

[even darkness must pass @jinsoIs]

@maxfawcett how many times are they going to misuse that line, getting real bored with these tired ass attacks. don't think she knows what the term educated means because I haven't seen a single educated thing said by her

@MikePMoffatt when have the conservatives done ANYTHING to help working people?? on what parallel world are some living to believe this, we're seeing their bullshit play out in real time with the majority of our provinces run by these conservative goons making cuts to anything helpful

The global south will not survive this century without climate justice. You in the west are talking about paper straws, we in the global south are talking about reparations. My latest for @guardian: https://t.co/vChg9eN1X3

Barely anyone ever sees anything I tweet so I'm doubtful about trying this. Here goes, nonetheless:

I'm creating a @fordnation privatization index listing all the public services Ford is privatizing. Ppl need to know. Can you add any egs. that you know? Here's a start ⤵️

For those saying we should be magnanimous about the passing of the queen, a reminder that the queen inserted herself into the lives of Indigenous people here multiple times. She wasn't a bystander to the effects of colonisation and colonialism, she was an architect of it.

[@NatalieMehra @NatalieMehra1]

▪️@fordnation is privatizing our public hospitals' surgeries and diagnostics
▪️They are midstream through privatizing the majority (>18,000 so far) of new #LTC beds in New 30-yr contracts
▪️They are privatizing the last remaining public parts of home care more>>>

[@NatalieMehra @NatalieMehra1]

▪️@fordnation cut access to public #COVID testing & then privatized it, even allowing the for-profit companies to charge $200+ for medically needed COVID tests in violation of the Canada Health Act
▪️They privatized the provision of vaccines to for-profit pharmacy chains
More>>>

@brianlilley the way the likes of you have bastardized the term woke has been absolutely disgusting. learn some history you morally bankrupt and privileged sack of sh*t

[Dr. Deepti Gurdasani @dgurdasani1]

Wow, an entire thread that 1) completely ignores most of the evidence on long COVID, including long-term impacts on multiple systems 2) minimises long COVID in children (not <1%), & 3) quotes a DfE study on masks where masks were in the large part not even worn in classrooms! 🤦‍♀️

[Dr. Deepti Gurdasani @dgurdasani1]

Attacking a doctor in clinic who's wearing a mask to protect themselves & their patients. @jengerson- educate yourself. Yes, you're at risk sitting in a room even if someone has been there before you. Your patient is at risk even if you've taken off your mask before they came in

[AJ Leonardi, MBBS, PhD, MPH @fitterhappierAJ]

“Long Covid” isn’t some nebulous or psychosomatic thing. The virus hits the brains, lungs, kidneys, and hearts. Causes organ damage and fibrosis. Remains in tissues and causes ongoing inflammation. Hits lymphoid tissue in the gut.

[Michael Warner @drmwarner]

As a doctor I can't go back work post COVID+ until asymptomatic and RAT (-).

As per Dr. Moore, my wife and kids can go back to work/school post COVID as long as no symptoms, even if RAT still positive.

Sending infectious individuals back to work/school does not make sense.

[David Fisman @DFisman]

It’s pretty clear that most people in Ontario don’t care about this, but I would note that covid hospitalizations in children < 10, and in elders over 70, are currently far higher than they were in summer of 2020, or summer 2021.

@maxfawcett more like history won't remember them because they'll be 6 feet under after their 6th covid infection still acting like it's the flu

[even darkness must pass @jinsoIs]

imagine going to western university, an institute known for its health/medicine programs and still being an anti-vaxxer. chose the wrong place to go clearly, they should give their spots to people who actually care about their own health and others
