Public Health leadership has switched from protecting health to pacifying the public by minimizing knowledge. It's appalling, IMO. To a large degree, mainstream media has gone right along with it. Also appalling, IMO. 2/14
U of T election results: a decisive vote in favour of competence and against hate mongering. Thanks to those who retweeted and/or heeded the call. (Just maybe nobody tell Elon that Twitter was used to combat hate instead of fomenting it, I don't want to get suspended.)
This brief thread has a VERY targeted audience: faculty and librarians at the University of Toronto. If you are one of the thousands in the U of T Faculty Association, and if you generally support what I stand for, please read on. It's about the current UTFA election. 1/5
Amen👊🏻… good morning you lovely lot ❤️have a fabulous day much love from me as always ☕️👋🏻❤️🥰😘
This is an unusually in-depth article on schools and the need for clean air. Thanks, Simon!
The last two months, I spoke with parents, engineers, and scientists about the clean air in schools and buses. Thanks to @DrKateTO @joeyfox85 @FurnessColin @JANEMCARTHUR11 @jasmith_yorku @DFisman @CPCHE_info @ONSchoolSafety + many other parents and experts for speaking to me.
Concerned about air quality/safety in schools? I provided a deputation to the Toronto District School Board meeting on Monday. My 5-minute bit starts at 24:50. Then some Q&A. I felt a readiness to listen at the TDSB. Glad I was given the opportunity. tdsb.on.ca/Leadership/Boa…
I was really glad to have this chat with Jonna Brewer in NB about public awareness of Long COVID. Maybe even the best radio conversation I have had to date. And all before 7am.
A (non-COVID) fun item for New Year's Eve: What is the most vexing Wordle word you can imagine? We have: "oomph", "fluff", and "myrrh". (Also maybe "ginch" because of all the things that rhyme with it, and who'd have thought it'd be a valid Wordle word?)
Our 2023 holiday gingerbread creation: a perfect scale model of Toronto's CN Tower. (The original 1794 tower, that is.)
Happy to be quoted here BUT, to New Brunswick spokesperson Sean Hatchard: We have known for ~2 yrs that with Omicron, rapid tests are more sensitive when throat is ALSO swabbed - the instructions were written pre-Omicron. Please stop misinforming, FFS. cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…
