For all the protestors, pepper spray is oil based. If you get sprayed DO NOT rub your eyes. Immediately blink as much as you can to wash out some of the oil with your own tears. Then, wash your eyes with baby shampoo and rinse copiously with water. Be safe.

But it doesn't take an ER doc's ear to recognize that signal, does it? It's a fellow human in distress. Someone who has only enough air in his lungs to say one thing, who chooses those exact three words, "I can't breathe," surely everyone can hear what I hear in that?

This is our ammo. Ventilators lined up and ready to go! Let's make sure we don't run out. This is why we're trying to #FlattenTheCurve. With a surge, we won't be able to keep up with equipment & staff. So do your part and practice good hand hygiene & #SocialDistancing #COVID2019

This is it - probably the most important week to determine the trajectory of our curve in Canada. Now's the time to do our part & #CancelEverything & stay home. Currently working in the ICU & we're at max capacity; scary to think what will happen soon. #SocialDistancing #COVID19
