Three children died of the flu in Ottawa this month. If you have a small child, a good investment is a finger pulse oximeter to monitor pulse and oxygen levels. These data you can share with your doctor if symptoms are severe enough that you're considering an ER visit

COVID has a strong airborne component, so N95 masks work well to contain it. The flu, on the other hand, has a strong fomite component, so masks might not be the primary prevention tool. What does this mean?

So, ventilation and filtration (building scale - MERV13 in HVAC; room scale - portable HEPA; personal scale - N95s), right?
PHAC is leading in acknowledging that ALL respiratory illnesses transmit via aerosols. CMOHs & @ipaccanada.bsky.social need to catch up!

I’m in standing room at @torontobluejays.bsky.social , behind accessible seating, where a kid/teen in a wheelchair is distraught because he can’t see anything with everyone standing up. If anyone happens to be in a box or something with extra seats, this is your chance to do a good deed.

The measles outbreak is driven by antivaxxers and every illness and death is their fault.

People have to stop working and shut the economy down. That's the only way to save Palestinian lives. Protests will not be enough.
Please ask your labor union why they aren't supporting Italian unions.

We can afford Canada Post, we can afford universal healthcare and prescriptions, we can afford free tuition.
You're told we can't "afford it" because industry wants all the money you pay in tax going to them instead, and our politicians keep handing it over.

Let me be clear. As someone who has been professionally involved with the biodefense / biosecurity sector for nearly 20 years, and has worked on biological risk analysis for Covid-19 since early 2020, reducing one's risk of being infected is not health anxiety. It's just smart.
