Brampton has the highest positivity rate (22.4%), higher than Toronto (12.0%) and the provincial average (10.3%). Yet, Brampton has access to only 1 mobile/ pop-up clinic for 18+ L6S residents (BAPS).

WHY? We need answers. @fordnation

Hi everybody, I’m trying something new: I’m building a new AI tool to teach Medicine. We don’t have a name for it yet, but if you’re a medical student, you can try it.
Thanks to Scarborough Health Network Research Institute, we’re studying how it performs.

The best way to rapidly reduce the surgical backlog is to better utilize the public ORs we already have.

Our Election Monitor picked up on a curious piece of data leading into Ontario’s June election...

Ontarians were, seemingly all of a sudden, being charged for routine bloodwork. Our Analyst @sihotad, provides valuable insight here: https://t.co/Kvwe4tofqH

This man is 80-year-old, showed up to join the Ukrainian army, carrying with him a small case with 2 t-shirts, a pair of extra pants, a toothbrush and a few sandwiches for lunch.
He said he was doing it for his grandkids in #Ukraine

it is -30 in toronto tonight. and this was picture of the TTC last night taken by @fatnmostly. do not look away — this is canada’s failure on housing as a human right. we need all levels of government to end homelessness now.

PSA: If Canada Post can reliably deliver the junk mail flyers I get every single day, then Canada Post can reliably deliver rapid tests by mail to every Canadian too.

Some personal news: After almost two years of avoiding this whole #COVID19 thing, I finally got it. Almost certainly omicron. I'm double-vaccinated, yet I've had symptoms for nearly a week. 🧵

While the repeal of the farm laws is a positive development, we have a responsibility for the future.

Never forget the contribution of our elders who fought for this.

Never forget the over 600+ farmers that died over the past year during the peaceful protests.

Three Farm Laws are being repealed! #FarmersProtest

Feeling extremely grateful that my immediate family, extended family and friends are fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Couldn’t have done it without @VaxHuntersCan ‘s advocacy and @re2bs finding + booking appointments for us all. #ThisIsOurShotCA
