Hamilton Spec article features research by McMaster PhD candidate Fatima Sheikh showing people in 3 Hamilton neighbourhoods have double the risk of developing and/or dying from severe sepsis. Income disparity and lack of a family doctor are risk factors.
thespec.com
The findings are in line with The Spectator’s groundbreaking Code Red project, which examined the connections between health, social and economic factors in Hamilton

Good piece by Jean-Eric Tarride of @CHEPAMcMaster. Indeed, training emergency responders to provide goal-aligned palliative care offers benefits to patients & healthcare systems alike. I'm sure @TaniaBlackmore7 would approve! https://t.co/aSLFW2DfZb
