The risk of severe disease with #COVID varies for each person.
With so much COVID circulating, continue to mask up to protect yourself and others.
Patient story shared with permission.
PLEASE @CP24 and other media: "Fully Vaccinated" is 3 doses not 2 when reporting numbers in ICU and new cases!! UPDATE Otherwise it plays into the #Antivaxxer narrative
It's official. Starting today, people in Nova Scotia can pick up free rapid COVID tests at every single library in that province.
Meanwhile, in Ontario, 24 million rapid tests are sitting on shelves.
RT if you want access to free rapid tests now.
I have new polling that I will release later this week that shows most believe the 4th wave is not due to borders , or poor public health but overwhelmingly to the unvaccinated . Public patience with the vaccine refusers is utterly exhausted . Stay home or get vaxxed . The end.
In the 1st wave, we called them heroes.
In the 2nd wave, we called them heroes.
In the 3rd wave, we called them heroes.
In the 4th wave, we are allowing a small number of people to intimidate them.
@fordnation protect our Health Care Workers and the patients.
#HealthCareHeroes
Protesting is a right-but please, not at hospitals. Patients going in are sick and scared. When I was getting treatment recently a person in cubicle beside me was told nothing more could be done. Imagine then walking through a protest. Please, don't make someone suffer even more
This study shows 95% of 969 #COVID19-positive hospitalizations are in those not fully vaccinated.

The SOGC supports the use of all available COVID-19 vaccines approved in Canada in any trimester of pregnancy and during breastfeeding in accordance with regional eligibility. For more information, read our statement: https://t.co/eYRQsIRqut
This is my final word on the matter.
It's time to call for the immediate termination of the @YorkRegionGovt MOH, Dr. Kurji.
Similarly, I hope Kurji’s take below is HIS final word as an MOH.
Please retweet if you support this call to action. #FireKurji
