#BREAKING: The Ontario government has once again voted against #PaidSickDays.

In total, our government has now voted against paid sick days 21 times since the start of the #COVID19 pandemic.

If you’re not outraged, you’re not paying attention.

peel region has the highest number of new weekly covid cases. it is near the bottom in vaccine access. and workers are still being asked to be essential without paid sick leave for them as human beings.

this is systemic discrimination in motion.

[CBC News @CBCNews]

The CMA wants the federal government to change vaccine distribution to focus on areas where vaccines are more urgently needed, and said that paid sick leave "is urgently required." https://t.co/IlO03ETkRH

50% of Toronto’s COVID cases have been people on low incomes.

79% of cases are racialized people.

60%+ of workplace outbreaks have been in frontline settings like food processing and warehouses.

No lockdown will protect workers if they can’t stay home if sick. Paid sick leave.

friendly reminder that men who have sex with men aren’t allowed to donate blood unless they’ve been abstinent for 3 months (previously 1 year before covid-19 provided a need for more donors) because of prejudiced beliefs from the 80s

In case anyone thinks Ontario ICUs/hospitals aren’t getting absolutely fucked right now, my manager walked around our unit yesterday and offered every part time nurse and respiratory therapist a temporary full time position

@ellaamiddleton damn can’t believe everyone went and became a virologist 🤯

I love how everyone’s plan for dolling out the covid vaccine is “they need to start giving it out at the pharmacies!!!!!”, as if your local zehrs pharmacy has a -70C freezer and the manpower to thaw, reconstitute, and administer the vaccine in its measly 2 hour shelf life
