Thank you for wearing red for #WearRedCanada #HerHeartMatters ♥️
Heart disease is the #1 killer of women worldwide and can strike at any age. Yet women’s ❤️ health still goes underdiagnosed, undertreated and understudied. #WearRedCanada is helping to raise awareness and effect the change we need, bc #HerHeartMatters: wearredcanada.ca

Unwashed hands are the path to the dark side. Unwashed hands lead to germs; germs lead to illness; illness leads to suffering. This #StarWars day and every day, #washyourhands frequently for at least 20 seconds with soap and water. #MayThe4thBeWithYou #COVID19
