“It's very hard not to argue that this is the greatest single failure of the modern medical system,” says Dr. Peter Attia, referring to the hesitancy to prescribe hormone replacement therapy for perimenopausal and menopausal women. https://t.co/g7LbhIrY5f

Today is World Organ Donation Day. For me, it's more than a day when we slap a ribbon on what we're wearing only to discard it at day's end.

Sleep is the foundation of mental, physical and emotional health. Kudos to @SleepCountryCan on this initiative! And also to our legislators, let's finally cancel (or make permanent) Daylight Savings time🙏

The hate rallies celebrating the kidnapping and slaughtering of innocent Israeli people by terrorists are reprehensible and disgusting. They have no place in Ontario. Now more than ever, we stand with Israel and affirm its right to defend itself and its people.

Canada strongly condemns the current terrorist attacks against Israel. These acts of violence are completely unacceptable. We stand with Israel and fully support its right to defend itself. Our thoughts are with everyone affected by this. Civilian life must be protected.

Jamie is too humble to sing his own praises, so let me do it for him. He led our team through one of the most challenging periods in recent memory. He's been our rock. His first instinct is to lift others up and he never lost his good humour. I'm so thankful for his leadership.

I join everyone across our province, country and the world in commemorating the remarkable life of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the Queen of Canada. Throughout her historic reign, she taught us the true meaning of selfless service. Long live the King!

And to wish all my very best to Min Jones and the team as they tackle this critically important portfolio - including and especially the largest ongoing transformation of our health care system with ON Health, always striving to deliver the best care to Ontario families. (6/6)

I’m incredibly proud of each of them and of the work, grounded in our shared purpose to save the most lives, protect the most livelihoods, and when there were mistakes, to course correct, and continue to show up every morning, driven by what mattered most. (4/6)

Much is rightly expected of government staff (political and civil service), and of course the Health team was called on even more than is customary over the past 2.5 years. I was lucky to have the best of the best in #onpoli by my side. (3/6)

I won’t be able to cover all of the things I’m so grateful for and proud that we accomplished together in a post, but at the top of the list is my profound appreciation for our team. (2/6)

Last week I said goodbye to the best job in the world. But after 4 years it has come time that my other more important title deserves some focused nurturing and attention. (1/6)

Anyone who has worked with @laurelbrazill knows hands down she’s one of the best staffers in gov’t. Thank you for your many years of service, Laurel! Missing you is an understatement.

NEW - There have been *no* changes to blood tests that are covered under OHIP, the Ontario Ministry of Health confirms to CityNews (statement below) this after a number of viral tweets suggested that some were being charged money for bloodwork or screening tests.

Fact check: Del Duca accuses the PCs of pushing “private hospitals” by relying on this quote from Christine Elliott that has been repeatedly taken out of context.

This is the 2nd Toronto Star column in two weeks to misconstrue a remark Christine Elliott made in February about “opening up” private hospitals. She was talking about literally opening them up.. because they were close under an emergency order.

Happy Birthday Your Majesty! Today as The Queen turns 96, we’re sharing this photograph of the young Princess Elizabeth aged 2. Then, in 1928, it was never expected she would be Queen, and this year Her Majesty is celebrating her #PlatinumJubilee - a first in British history.
