There is no validity to recent claims that children are being transferred from our intensive care units to hospitals in the US. While the volumes in our PICU are exceedingly high, we continue to mobilize resources to meet the clinical needs of these very ill patients.

It’ll happen eventually. There are high schools in California with half their students out sick (1,000+ kids) with mysterious flu-like symptoms. Once this COVID season reaches it’s peak there will be plenty of hospitals running out of space.

For how long…
how many children aren’t receiving the care they need currently with 33 hrs waits or further delays to their operations well beyond the clinical recommendation wait.
@SickKidsNews
They are in Niagara though aren’t they? I’ve heard they are just taking respiratory paediatric patients and the rest of being sent to Mac.
@SickKidsNews
Well you guys were on the
@fordnation
train saying schools were safe when they weren't ...,..and remember children aren't at risk from covid...remember all that ???? Hmmmmm. I lost respect for your hospital then. Where is your buddy ford now??¿

@RuralHomeCareBG
So what do you think? Masks back on in schools or nah? Your PICU is slammed and we’re not even half way through October for crying out loud!
@SickKidsNews
We need your advocacy to bring back masks in schools NOW. AAP made their case that masking is completely safe for kids back in August. This is getting worse and worse. Be part of the solution.
@SickKidsNews
Each one of my daughter’s visits to PICU she was treated with the best care from Sick Kids highly trained and hugely compassionate physicians and nurses as well as any other members of her team. How sad this is happening. We need to bring back masks before winter comes.
@SickKidsNews
Thank you for what you are doing. How about a little advocacy and call for masks back in schools? If you reduce your burden just a little…

Bring back masks in school. We wouldn't be stuck with Covid from the kid who was coughing and snottinb on everyone cos his parents dropped him off with no F's given all while the teachers didn't GAF. My kid wears one. All of them can.
@SickKidsNews
Perhaps you are not sending the kids to the US, but are you sending them to other childrens' hospitals in Ontario, say to Mac, in Hamilton.....
