If the CDC is talking about the avian flu as a risk, that means that the risk is not only real, but it's worse than the one confirmed human case might make you assume it is. Assume the worst.

My father opened his eyes today. 10 days and he finally opened his eyes and blinked. I can't even begin to tell you the amount of happiness the simple thought of my father blinking and opening his eyes truly brings me. I’m so grateful. Take NOTHING for granted in this life.

@ErinsoroS Congratulations @ErinsoroS I am in awe ❤️

A year ago when I was trying to manage psychosis, the police came to my door & without a single word of care they handcuffed me and brought me to the hospital in a car lined with bars. I was stripped, assaulted, drugged, and tied arms and legs to a bed in solitary confinement.

“Suicides in Canada went up after MAID’s introduction in 2016, but in 2020, after the government sent $2,000 CERB cheques to so many, rates fell by 15 per cent. That raises even more uncomfortable questions.” thestar.com/amp/politics/p…

The Canadian leg of my recent flight required passengers to wear masks and they did. The US leg of the same trip (with many of the same ppl) did not require it and most didn’t. Reject the notion that public health must bend to what people will do anyway. It can lead.

The most important time is the day after the apology so here is my "To Do" list for the Catholic Church, the Holy See and @Pontifex

The nurse called at 11 pm crying & begging her colleague to come in. She was the ONLY nurse for 21 acute care pts! Colleague got out of bed & dragged her tired broken body in after just working 4, 12 hr days. The HC system is collapsing 😔#nursingshortage #onhealth #patientsafety

This thread will be dedicated to the victims of the mass shooting in Buffalo. This is Ruth Whitfield, 86. Her son, the former Buffalo Fire Commissioner, said she was on her way from visiting her husband in a nursing home and stopped at the store to get something to eat.

@TorontoPolice There are two different names/ages in your release.

I wish people cared this much about Black and Indigenous rights like they do about truckers driving to Ottawa.

“As long as Africa is not vaccinated, you will never be able to sleep soundly.” Turns out that a global pandemic can only be beaten globally. Who knew? 🤷🏾‍♂️ #COVID19 nationalgeographic.com/science/articl….

Canadians disgusted by Roe v Wade being reassessed in USA but Quebec is out here firing women teachers who wear a hijab. Canada has no right to pretend it cares about bodily agency of women.

Pretty exceptional cabinet intro: NDP leader Wab Kinew came up to new Indigenous Relations Minister Alan Lagimodiere to confront him on what he just said about the people who started residential schools having good intentions at the time #mbleg

As individuals we have an opportunity to make a positive impact each and every day 🧡❤️

Be mindful when reaching out with requests for interviews with elders or survivors of the residential school system. It is re-traumatizing, distressing and unfair to ask them to perform this type of emotional labour for an interview.

We have to stop confusing equality with equity.
