In recognition of the loss of #measles #elimination status in #Canada - may I ask those who believe in #vaccines and also choose to #GetVaccinated share their support and maybe this logo - and feel free to make it better as I admit it's rather clunky. #Vaccines4Life

Not AT ALL happy. It will take a year or so to notice the effects but I do feel for the healthcare professionals who are going to deal with yet another re-emergence. I warned about this over 10 years ago - people back then said it can't be that bad. Well...

Don't mind me. I'm just reading the @jama.com article showing no higher incidence of #autism due to #acetaminophen (erm #Tylenol) use during pregnancy. For those about to anti, it involves 2.48M people.

LOVED #WishWorld - it had the feel of old @bbcdoctorwhom.bsky.social series that I grew up with - a bit campy, a bit nonsensical, so many unanswered questions, and the entire world at stake. Also, if I can say this without too much pushback from the haters...Archie Panjabi ATE.
