Hi Mina, the answer is straightforward. Your statement that "the vaccinated are still just as likely to infect others" is scientifically wrong. Vaccinated persons infect others less (<) than unvaccinated persons. 1/5

Opening #schools tomorrow is a MEGA mistake. On top of all the reasons we have discussed -- flu is coming. If #school opens #Hospitals and #ICU will be overflowing till end of February and there is NO way we can cope with it. Think again @celliottability

Even if Omicron is less virulent than Delta, the massive number of new cases still results in hospitalization & puts pressure on a healthcare system that was stretched prior to this wave. Covid-related personnel absences (via infection & exposure) further exacerbate the problem.

In short, vaccination reduces transmission although it doesn't bring it down to zero. The Delta variant has reduced the benefit of vaccine (lowering transmission), but has not eliminated it. The cited NYT and CDC sources confirm this, even with the Delta variant. 3/5

#Project2025 is akin to the mean & weird far-right policies of Mr Poilievre & his far-right MPs. Same horrible playbook 🔥 Let's hope Mr. Trump loses big in November. The world needs more #Kindness and more social programs, not less. Call us woke or any other names Mr

Republicans are smearing the free school breakfast & lunch program Gov Tim Walz signed into law as “socialism.” Meanwhile, Trump’s Project 2025 calls for slashing existing school lunch programs on p. 302 of the playbook. Why does the GOP want to see children go hungry?

➡️ Want to understand how did we come to have occupations -- including ARMS, SWASTIKAS, CONFEDERATE FLAGS in #Canada and in particular #OttawaOccupation listen to @Lianne_Rood ➡️ Ask the people of #Ottawa if to them it looked like "Canada Day 1000 times" A disgrace. Mockery.

@michaelcoren The #antivaxxer movement is NOT about #Vaccines and it is NOT about #COVID19 . It is -- as a movement -- one of extreme right wing ideology that fit the PPC of Maxime Bernier, and some of Mr @erinotoole right factions of his party. #Canada be aware the worst of #Trumpism here!
