How come the CMOH’s and health ministers are still working remotely when everyone else is stuck working in covid-infested unmasked offices created by the CMOH’s?
Ok so one of you flew beside me yesterday W/ your kid from YEG to YYZ. I know you’re on

and
#COVIDisAirborne
Twitter because you had an N95 and so did your kid. You also had a small HEPA plugged into the entertainment system 👌 reply or DM me
Do not let your kids eat inside a classroom. I know. It sounds impossible. Figure it out. That’s your job. We will try smoothies at outdoor lunch break. All the respirators in the world won’t save your child from mask-less lunch.
Unpopular opinion: CO2 readings while important to know if high, are not an excuse to take off your mask when they are low. Sharing air indoors is a a massive risk. If it can be avoided, it should be.

My 4 says “angervated” instead of aggravated. Tbh I think I like her version better. There’s usually a lot of anger involved in aggravation
If we keep only testing one demographic people for monkeypox and using the results to confirm our own bias, who wants to pick the next “at risk” group? Let’s test only hockey fans. Suddenly being a hockey fan will be a risk factor. Come on world.

I fully understand vax to vax transmission is less likely.
@DFisman
posted studies on it. But the wise among us are starting to understand it’s not enough. We need to bring back masks, IAQ, look at other ways to clean air
@jvipondmd
I have no medical training but if you put me in charge I’m handing out n95 like candy and immediate boosters to 75+ and HCW before the wheels fall off the bus. HEPA for schools, kn95 for all, outdoor lunches. This is not hard it just takes giving a shit
4/4 Of the many mask types, those made with layers of materials capable of filtering fine virus particles and that fit with a good snug seal on your face are best for preventing or reducing the amount of infectious particles you may inhale ➡️
@alexmeshkin
This last week I was the only person masked at the office. Packed into boardroom with others. Everyone was merry. Let’s do lunch! Can we eat outside? Raining. Oh well 🤷🏻♂️ it’s becoming hard to fit in without jeopardizing health. I did my best Hope it was enough. Find out soon
As masks become “optional” across the country, I recommend you double down on the type of mask you’re wearing. Choosing to wear a medical or cloth mask when the other people are unmasked is honestly a waste of time. N95 or elastomeric. And continue to choose indoor spaces wisely
@alexmeshkin
The cognitive dissonance is WILD. Nobody has staff, everyone is whispering about colleagues being sick. But nobody is doing anything about this just continuing on with their hair on fire. I don’t know what it will take to stop this.
People seem to understand that China plays the “long game” with politics and policy. Why can’t they understand covid zero IS playing the long game. In a few years the western world will be so ill our economies will collapse under the weight of disability and death.

This is where the war on science and truth has brought us
Nearly 3% *of the entire Swedish population* is estimated to have lost or impaired sense of smell following acute Covid infection.
Swedish "experts" assure us, however, that Longcovid is primarily caused by anxiety and can be treated with CBT.

Society is at a breaking point. it’s so busy having a party, Bars, restaurants and Boardrooms are full of unmasked people. Listen to the individual conversations though and everyone is asking eachother why so many people are off sick.

Could have said the same thing about all the MD’s who *continue* to not wear N95 and still can’t figure out aerosol spread let alone figure out long covid or that kids get terribly ill and can have nightmare long term consequences.
I do not understand why they don’t blockade the blockade. Cut off supplies. Cut off gas and propane. Mother Nature (-17c currently) will do the rest

There is a severe disconnect between Twitter and reality. People not on here following the right accounts think everything is fine. It wasn’t before, but it sure as hell isn’t fine now. 2022 will be the year we find out what 2020 would have been like without early lockdowns
@TRyanGregory
Media is continuing to focus on the anti-fax as they’re an easy target but they are missing the real story because media IS the story. Gaslighting and refusal to provide the public with correct info is happening daily
How many deaths did the CBC Doctors and intransigent anchor contribute to by refusing to platform differing expert opinions? Experts who have been proven right and are now accused of being trolls?
@graeme_0
And then Enovid: multiple studies showing effectiveness including both as post exposure and pre exposure. Shown to reduce viral load. But CDC says no, we don’t know reduction of viral load is useful.

@jvipondmd
out as sudden deaths continue and it becomes more clear the talking heads were wrong, ppl will grasp at only other narrative: anti-vax conspiracies
The more coverage excess deaths get - the more anti-vaxxers will appear to be right since the 'scientists' refuse to acknowledge infections and especially repeat infections cause post-acute COVID deaths that are not being counted as COVID deaths.
These idiots created this mess
@Ninawildflower
Please try and have them eat outside or send something that can be eaten really fast. My son takes smoothie. He masked all day and still got covid last January likely from indoor lunch. I know this is hard but all we can do is try
I keep seeing tweets relating covid to disabled. Ask a heart doc who they’re seeing impacted. It’s formerly strong healthy people. The “covid hurts disabled people” is a minimizer narrative. And yes I know I’m QT’ing the virus. The virus wants you to think this is about disabled
Shoutout to all the humans who’ve convinced themselves it’s selfish for the disabled to ask others to help keep them alive. You’ve literally flipped the meaning of the word “selfish” around backwards just so you can stay the heroes of your own stories! GREAT work humans! ❤️
@jvipondmd
I mean… as soon as we introduced masks into communities and schools (loopholes and all) we saw transmission drop. Ontario did it to start the school year and didn’t have a massive spike. Should be obvious to anyone that superior masks are… superior so let’s get those out there!

So. Basically bird flu is in our homes now potentially 😳 and most people are immune comp from covid. Preeeeetty much just a matter of time until it spreads to humans. Things are going perfectly.
@DFisman
The Federal government needs to take a stand that covid is airborne and put in place rules so there are no more games. This has gone on long enough. We all agree on vaccine mandates. We all agree that IF covid is airborne (it is) then we should mitigate. WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR
Ok this is for all you Enovid people. This is an FAQ on their page. Kinda funny kinda serious. NONS will kill your live attenuated virus nasal spray vaccines

@joeolivermd
The irony is when we tried to bring air purifiers to schools we were told not allowed because it wouldn’t be fair to other schools 😳 I offered to build them and bring them for every class in my kids’ school. No. 1/2
Someone explain to me how ME building 7 CR boxes to protect my kid AND other people’s kids is somehow individualistic and not equitable? Of the 7 boxes, my kids were in the room with one box. 🤦🏻♂️ some people have fully lost the plot.
@jvipondmd
They also announced surgeries and being cancelled as well as endoscopies. This will result in a silent epidemic of pain, suffering and death. People can’t have cancer surgery if they don’t get diagnosed first
The CR boxes in my header… I built them for our kids’ daycare. One day my kids come home and tell me yeah the daycare has taken the boxes apart and the fans are being used as fans 😡🤬

@impishchimp
It’s really crazy the anti-vaxers are going nuts about vaccine mandates but parents watch 800,000 rapid tests go to the garbage and we don’t make a peep. It’s time to rise up. All of this is unbearable
@jvipondmd
My kids both wear masks. We do everything we can to keep them safe. The older one eats outside at recess or takes smoothies. Younger one is more of a challenge. Asking parents to “personal responsibility” school safety is like asking ✈️passengers to make sure ✈️ doesn’t crash
@DFisman
As much grief as Ontario and
@fordnation
gets, I’m aghast they actually removed food and drink from venues. It makes sense. Watch hockey keep your respirator on. Personally I wouldn’t go anyway but it’s a lot safer than 20,000 people stated and unmasked.

(Not a doctor) because SARS2 has a superantigen that makes your Tcells go nuts. The only thing that mediates it is naive tcells and you have a finite quantity. Once this thing lures out a lot of naive T cells and kills them or screws them up, you have fewer left next round
Do you guys get it yet? This is why companies are pushing so hard for return to premises. Our job is to do our jobs. Our job isn’t to consume. If you’re forced back to office, make it a point to consume NOTHING in the area where you work. To hell with them all
