As of today the Province has lifted the requirement for masks in most indoor settings. But we still encourage you to keep wearing masks, especially indoors when physical distancing may not be possible. COVID levels remain high & masks are an effective layer of protection. (1/3)

Thank you for the jam-packed #metaleadership class @RicherEarth, @LMarcusHarvard, and Sara @HarvardChanSPH. Helped me develop my understanding of leadership, tools to approach crises, and opportunity to learn from fantastic speakers and classmates!

Ontario's ability to rapidly scale up #COVID19 vaccination is impressive. Dec 10: 78K administered, 7-day average 67K Dec 23: 253K administered, 7 day average 180K. Wow. This is a massive team effort. Per-capita, this is up there with the fastest pace on the planet.

Berlin 🇩🇪 Car🚗 Ban Campaign👇👇 "We want people to be able to sleep with their windows open, and children to be able to play in the street again. Grandparents should be able to ride their bicycles safely and have plenty of benches to take a breather on.” https://t.co/IsIlh1HuVI

THREAD: Bike lanes - they're not created equal. Safe design is the key to whether a bike lane is convenient and usable for riders of all ages and abilities. So which ones work and which ones don't? (Full video: https://t.co/BbXJJShGo3)

“The currency of public health is trust.” - @DrMaryTBassett one of the many gems from an insightful interview with @HelenClarkNZ accessible here:
