Big news! Starting April 1, British Columbia will become the first province to offer free prescription contraception for women, transgender and non-binary people, covering birth control products, IUDs and Plan B emergency contraceptives. https://t.co/rQ1SCckE4Z

Private delivery is only one way to do more surgeries (and may not be ideal for surgery other than cataracts??) Much can still be done within public system: why not increase capacity in our hospitals and centralize wait lists? https://t.co/Syca3XeP64 via @torontostar

[Dr. Kevin Smith @KevinSmithUHN]

Hmmm 🤔 Lots of blame and shame about who screwed up health care. We all played a part - and all parts of the system contributed to getting to where we’re at.

The New York Times recently released an op-ed entitled The Greatest Life Hacks in the World (for Now).

It had some absolute gems of wisdom.

Here were my favorites:

Had the opportunity to present the results from our IOL teaching video study @SOGCorg #ACSC2022 #CCSA2022. @EliShoreMD @TVASurg TLDR: Teaching videos work!

[Temerty Medicine @uoftmedicine]

Pregnancy, birth and parenthood can be complicated.
People are often quick to blame themselves when things don’t go as expected. #TemertyMed Drs. @sumedha_arya & @TaliBogler shared their experiences in #UofTMed magazine ➡️ https://t.co/WLkZk3islr

Advocacy is cited as an essential role by the royal college of physicians and surgeons. coming thru this pandemic, it is clear that advocacy cannot be treated as a “soft skill.” it has to be fiercely protected. the first task of physician is to call out hazardous public policy.

A picture is worth a thousand words...the only one that comes to mind here is horror. Praying for peace.

Every day, we are each witnessing the unfolding horrors inflicted upon the Ukrainian people.

Sadly today, we have become aware that these atrocities now include the destruction of a maternity and infant hospital in the city of Mariupol.

[Andrew Boozary MD @drandrewb]

when pusateri’s starting price gouging for hand sanitizer in a pandemic it was called out/stopped. need the same frame from policymakers for those trying to profit off rapid tests while people who need them most can’t access them at all.

[Craig Miller @craigmillr]

Today, The Vohra Miller Foundation has committed $5-million to launch First Exposure, a helpline and site for evidence-based information on medications and other substances in pregnancy & lactation.

We’ve partnered with @UofT_dlsph and will be launching soon.

Now that I have 100K followers, I want to talk about #OvarianCancer. Specifically my gritty story. The goal is awareness. I hope you find this narrative informative.

A family of 6 were hauled over the side of one of the last boats, already dangerously overcrowded, leaving Shanghai to Hong Kong during as Communist rule was declared in 1949. The youngest infant girl had a flail chest from being crushed in the stampede. 1/4

Salman and Madiha were such kind hearted, soft spoken, and generous people. The entire time we stood in prayer, I imagined them smiling at us. I imagine them telling Yumna: “Beta, who knew when we moved to Canada that we would change the world?” #OurLondonFamily #LdnOnt
