WOW 😳– a LOT of debate yesterday about the BC Court decision to block laws that restrict public consumption of drugs. Almost all prompted by politicians declaring (INCORRECTLY)🙄that the injunction will lead to fentanyl in playgrounds. Let me break it down for everyone.

First,…

So thrilled to see this news! André sets the standard for all health journalists but is never too busy to answer a question or dispense advice. A great colleague and superb human. Congratulations André Picard!

As a Christmas Day message, Trump told his perceived enemies to 'ROT IN HELL,' as part of a lengthy tirade.

If you had a family member who went on rants like this, you would be having difficult conversations about what sort of assisted living facility would be most appropriate.

Female surgeons outperform men on patient outcomes, studies show upi.com/Health_News/20… via @upi Christopher Wallis (he/him/his) et al.

'...two new studies show that if patients want safe, effective long-term results, picking a female surgeon might be key.'

136 of our colleagues in Gaza have been killed in 75 days – something we have never seen in United Nations history.

Most of our staff have been forced from their homes.

I pay tribute to them & the thousands of aid workers risking their lives as they support civilians in Gaza.

I keep reading this and wondering:
1) what does the WHO know that precipitated this advice for hospitals?
2) what does IPAC Canada think they know that allows them to override the WHO advice?

Just watched BC Ferries crew approach a man sitting near me who looked extremely down on his luck. I braced for the worst, thinking they’d ask him to put his shoes back on etc, but instead offered him a free meal. My heart. Kindness is always in season. Thank you to the crew 💓

Great comment by a great person.

This is so true. We accept 'short staffed' as a reasonable excuse. It's not.

How many years have we had to predict and prepare for this? Do we also not know how to protect people from resp disease?

This is a gov failure.

Nothing to see here, just the owner of this site and a presidential candidate chatting it up with a man indicted for rape/human trafficking and another who lied about dead kids to harass their grieving parents.

This may really be the bottom.
