I don't know who needs to hear this, but a "mild covid infection" that results in chronic, lifelong disability is not—and will never be—a mild covid infection.

The past few yrs has revealed how little the majority of the online left actually cares about the values they claim to espouse. They have zero solidarity. They won't fight mask bans, they won't fight surveillance laws, they won't fight censorship. They only care what's trending

There should be public outraged at these repeated ER closures & maternity diversions in BC This was predictable & largely avoidable. Managing healthcare in 4 year cycles, no matter the party in power, does not work. Kicking the can down the road eventually gets you here. #bcpoli

"The department will close for the same hours on June 23, 24, 27, 28 and 30, as well as on July 3 and 4, Fraser Health said.' ctvnews.ca/vancouver/arti…

This is brutal. Hallway medicine has become such a fixture in BC, one hospital is now experimenting with providing ear plugs and eye masks to help patients sleep. Not surprisingly, it is helping patients stuck in hallways get about 50% more sleep. #BCHealthCrisis #bcpoli

@Brick_Suit @DJSnM Imagine fearing a bit of fabric touching your skin. Do you also oppose seatbelts? Scuba gear? Jock straps lol

Before going out to launch rockets I visited the local hobby store, and I was sad to see how its stocks have dwindled in the last few years. Most of you probably don't care. But this store, under previous owners, used to supply the model and prop builders who made Star Wars.

1. Remember that any attempt to paint Long Covid as psychogenic in nature deliberately and completely incorrectly biologically decouples SARS-CoV-2 infection from Long Covid. In essence, this rhetoric shifts the causative factor for LC from the virus to the patient's mind.

Health Connect Registry, broken down by health authority. Number on list per 1000 population: VIHA: 133 VCH: 41 NH: 58 IHA: 88 FH: 49 With 1.3 million without a family doc, the list (~400k) holds only a fraction.

A new FOI report was published about BC's Health Connect Registry, apparently requested by a media organization. And wonder of wonders, the data is in Excel, not PDF—hurray! The chart below is the number of people on the list over time. Currently about 400k. Breakdown by PCN.

@canuckbcinbc I didn't know this detail (or had forgotten), but you're right! Perry Kendall also tried to exploit a public health issue for financial gain. Bonnie Henry, however, is doing it while still at her government post!

@frozen Seems like every BC PHO exploits their opportunities. Didn’t the last one start a drug supply business after advocating for a supply of safe drugs?
