URGENT: We are currently experiencing a surge in patients across the hospital which, combined with ongoing staff & physician shortages & lack of post-acute beds in the community, has led to longer wait-times in our Emergency Department (ED) today. We’re asking for your help #ygk

So, to sum up the Supreme Court’s week: life begins at conception and ends in a mass shooting.

A great read, doubtful to get the attention it, or this crisis deserves. “Health-care burnout is real, worsening and threatens patients as well” https://t.co/Hp0bg6hwU7 via @torontostar.

Here is a painful truth: without a universal strategy to mitigate COVID, the health-care system will be pummeled by it for years to come.

To celebrate mothers, we should make sure mothers and their children have health care. To celebrate mothers, we should offer paid parental leave and paid sick leave. To celebrate mothers, we should make quality child care affordable for everyone.

Canada is 1/10th the size of USA If the US has had 900K Covid deaths it stands to reason that we should have had 90K deaths - Sadly, we've lost 34K. - So it's possible there are 56K Canadians still alive because most of us did what we had to do Maybe you know one of them

The “change what you’re wearing to keep safe” strategy is something women have been familiar with for ages. It’s advice given in the name of safety, but not the actual protection required to keep us safe. Change in behaviour is required of those causing harm, not vice versa.

Looking forward to @CAEP_Docs grand rounds. Come meet some of my Aussie friends who experience many of the same challenges in their ED. Together we'll explore how the values of EM and how we help our teams live those values in tumultuous circumstances. https://t.co/hvXYK7IMOA
