When warnings of Insectageddon were issued a few years ago, there was widespread denial. Less so now. It's devastating. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Some basic facts about international students, who they are and who they are not Please pass on the message @shashikalb.bsky.social

“We take vaccines so for granted in the United States” ...“Women in the developing world know the power of [vaccines]. They will walk 10 kilometers in the heat with their child and line up to get a vaccine because they have seen death.” Melinda Gates

More of this, please: www.cbc.ca/news/busines...

The Ford govt’s forced closure of the Supervised Consumption Site in Chinatown has made things worse. Public drug use happening closer to kids, unsupervised. Residents are speaking out, they want a community that’s safe for everyone. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Vaccines work.

In Canada, communities should not have to sue for clean drinking water. Enough already. www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art...

Wait are you trying to tell me that vaccines decrease the incidence and severity of illnesses? Big if true.

I can’t like this post enough. Well done, sir.

PLEASE let our governments prohibit this in Canada! What privacy can possibly be left if big tech/pharma is allowed to data mine your medical records. As an HCP, words cannot express my horror... www.theglobeandmail.com/business/art...

NEW YORK (AP) - ProPublica wins 2025 Pulitzer for Public Service for reports on deaths of pregnant women in abortion-restricted states.

I never thought I would be reading something like this in my career. I hope we can turn this ship around while we can. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

223 more #measles in Ontario. That’s over 1200 cases. (CBC 5:30 news)

Liberal Leader Mark Carney is making a direct appeal to Canadian doctors and nurses living in the U.S. to “come home,” saying "there has never been a better time," by @anjakaradeglija.bsky.social nowtoronto.com/news/carney-... via @nowtoronto.bsky.social @nicktsergas.ca

Mark Carney tells a story about Pope Francis

My goodness. #MullenGroup should be ashamed of their asinine response. #Jasper #Alberta #Canada #Abpoli

If I see another article about birth rates that refuses to grapple with the way having children systematically disadvantages women I swear to god. There is no mystery. Stop pretending there is. We’ve got to do away with credulity for nonsense.

"Human rights are not only violated by terrorism, repression or assassination, but also by unfair economic structures that create huge inequalities." - Pope Francis

"Decolonizing global health is not merely a choice - it is an urgent necessity for Africa" Powerful @plosglobalpublichealth.org essays by African students & young professionals speakingofmedicine.plos.org/2025/04/16/l...

Just spoke with my CDC sources. They were in tears. Budgets cut. RFJK has ordered them not to publicize bird flu symptoms in exposed workers. Not to test them. Not to speak. They know people are getting sick. And they’re being forced to stay silent. This is not just a cover-up. It's cruelty.

A very sad day; we’ve lost a true champion of the marginalized and the planet we all share: www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

The pope was a strong advocate for the poor and the environment and a towering figure on the world stage, addressing not just Catholics but the men and women of our time.

This is another reason why no right minded Canadian should buy any produce grown in the US. Boycotting US products could very well save your life.

Terrific news in Sweden... Massive decreases in HPV-16 & 18 due to HPV vaccination. There was a 98%/99% decline in HPV-16/HPV-18 prevalence among 2000-born vs. (unvaxxed) 1984-born cohort. Declines larger than the vax coverage, suggesting herd immunity operating. 🛟🧪😷 Medsky idsky health policy

I couldn’t agree more with @ottawapublichealth.ca. We can’t solve the overdose and addiction crisis in Centretown without significant investments in housing, addiction treatment, frontline harm reduction and health care. ottawacitizen.com/news/local-n...

Misinformation is lying and lying to discourage parents from vaccinating is sending children to hospital and ICU. Measles cases were rare (graph) www.winnipegfreepress.com/arts-and-lif... Measles is preventable but we have 661 cases. Vaccinate children. Please. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

"Public health depends on public trust. When that trust is broken, when people start to see vaccines as personal choices without regard to public health — or, worse, as threats — diseases like measles come roaring back." @michaelmina.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/04/02/o...
