Yessss. Stop distracting from what we need to do. Urgency of cleaner air. Urgency of healthcare crisis. Urgency of antibiotic/antipyretic shortage.

Furthermore, saying the best way to solve the problem is by increasing capacity means we as a society are ok with a certain number of kids needing to go to the hospital/ICU, rather than making it out primary goal to keep kids healthy in the first place.

This is what a severe respiratory illness looks like in a child. Resp rate is nearly 60/minute, muscles flaring in the neck are a sign she’s struggling, the listless distracted look in her poor eyes. Hard to watch and not get emotional considering that this is all preventable!
Hard to watch, but it's reality. My 2 year old granddaughter, admitted to CHEO yesterday. Dad works in the school system, mom is a nurse. Is doing this to our babies worth the anti mask rhetoric?

Cheapest breakfast you can make? Oatmeal. Here’s a great version. Powdered milk optional. familystylefood.com/maple-ci… #cheapeats
Trying to eat healthy with no #money? Bananas and frozen mixed veg can get you far. #cheapeats.
Looking for some #cheapeats for #dinner? Try this simple lentil soup. Bet you could drop the onion and use any seasoning you have. youtu.be/BrhqQ2vYxnM
Can anyone explain why Cuba seems to have eliminated covid?

It’s interesting to see people treat the statement “catching covid repeatedly until it kills you” as hyperbole. Covid is a leading cause of death across all ages. If nothing changes, then losing people we care about to covid will be as common as cancer, heart disease or dementia.

I am an immunologist. None of my fellow immunologists who are also scientists say this @CBCNews Data far from supports this statement. Covid infections have not gotten milder and each carries with it the risk of long Covid. Please retract this statement and article
Scientists say that for most healthy adults, COVID-19 reinfections should get easier to deal with as the immune system gains repeat training on how to handle the pathogen. cbc.ca/1.6522051

“Reinfections are milder because that’s how the immune system works” This statement is brought to you by CBC and a virologist that has previously said: ⤵️🧵

Thx @guardian for inviting me to share these #LongCovid questions. One of the most agonizing parts of this condition has been waiting for the world to catch up with what we know about the disease - & the abysmal lack of urgency to do anything about it. /1 theguardian.com/world/commen…

The arts are essential. They are the means of self expression. Without self expression you are walking down the road to bad mental health.
