TL;DR: They couldn't reliably infect participants with WT or Delta, even at high doses. It indirectly strengthens the idea that rapid & frequent vaccine updates (protein/mRNA) could lower infection risk significantly while we develop more durable vaccines. nature.com/articles/d4158…
2 more cases of confirmed measles in our local school. Both children unimmunized. ☹️ As physicians particularly when kids need admission for complications we struggle with; •What more could I have done? •How could I have communicated better? Hope they recover well.
Looking forward to #UWTL2024 @UWaterloo tomorrow! I’ll be speaking at a workshop about online grad seminar courses and their value for students with diverse needs, emphasizing inclusion & safety during the ongoing spread of SARS-CoV-2. 🔗 uwaterloo.ca/uw-teaching-an… Wish me luck!
It didn’t used to be like this. Ableism has always existed - but it was never as aggressively in your face as it is now. People are experiencing trauma from Covid… and rather than cope with it they seem to be lashing out at disabled individuals. /6
Even in hospitals - the one place we have no choice but to go - masking is not required & you run the risk of being labeled difficult or anxious for requesting a HCW mask in your presence. We’re expected to just go along and risk our health & baseline for the comfort of others /4
Here’s the thing, you can’t have it both ways. You can’t say they’re not good enough while also claiming they’re good enough for the at risk who have no other options to protect themselves. If they’re not good enough, we need better accommodations for the immune compromised.

@GosiaGasperoPhD @chantz_y Worse! It's like attempting to estimate brain damage after a hit to the head by asking parents if their child experienced "symptoms" afterwards, without specifying what. Some would know what to report, others would say "no pain, they're fine". Makes you wonder if it's deliberate.
lol y'all are my own best sources of info now. You better believe I checked "social media" for this one. They won't be happy
Whoa did anyone else get a call from PHAC Gov't of Canada today? They asked me to complete a survey on kids & healthcare. Guess what it was actually about? #LongCovid
@DFisman @DavidJoffe64 It’s a conspiracy by Big Accutane.
@kadamssl @ONSchoolSafety Educate kids so they understand why clean air matters, ventilate classrooms by opening windows (dampers open), and filter classroom air (CR boxes to support mechanical ventilation). It just works👍 Why not 100% effective? Too many students per room, (close contact), ⏬️N95 usage
@kadamssl @ONSchoolSafety we are working on data management in class now, and we noticed something interesting. Our class has had an avg 9 students away sick per month (in the last 7 months). We have windows that open, CR boxes & some kids use free N95s...
@kadamssl @ONSchoolSafety We also have more kids in our room compared to all other classes. Compared to 2 other classes (same grade) with fewer kids per room. 18 sick days avg/7 months 22 sick days avg/7 months The data shows our efforts reduce sick days by about 50%🤯 ...
Mask aversion is an expensive hobby. With universal masking at schools & healthcare ~5300 flu hospital admissions likely could've been prevented in the last 2 years and probably 2/3 of COVID admissions (~7000) multiply 12,300 by cost of an admission
Next area I am going to focus on is destreaming support. In a bit of a surprise move there are deep cuts here. How you feel this cut will depend on how your board allocated the funds this year. Locally, we had destreaming support teachers. Funding for them is gone.
Our school boards are funded through 2 main envelopes now (they were before too, but here they are in their new name form): Core Education Funding: $28.6 billion (last year $27.9 billion) Responsive Education Programs (REP): $402.9 million (last year $516.22 million)
Ontario has cut 5,000 classroom positions since 2018. Yes, cell phones are a distraction. The real problem is the underfunding of public schools. #onted #onpoli. How many positions has your school board lost? See the board-by-board breakdown below. monitormag.ca/articles/ontar…
Hand washing and instrument disinfection in hospitals aren’t seasonal practices. Wearing respirators in hospitals shouldn’t be either. #CovidYear5 #Respirators4Hospitals

“Ontario, where they’re going to hashtag back to basics, out of sight out of mind….” 👇👇👇video credit @Lisab09231 👇👇#backtobasics #outofsightoutofmind #dougford #firelecce #lecce #ontario #onted @fordnation @Sflecce @ETFOeducators @osstf
They’ve invested way too much into the cognitive dissonance to let this change anything. Their brains are not going to accept any blame or personal responsibility for something with stakes THIS high when it would be so much easier to direct all their blame & anger at us instead
Even if H5N1 makes the successful leap to human to human transmission, and even if it ends up being the WORST case of the possible scenarios? I still don’t see a world in which people in any way validate people like us. The stakes would be even HIGHER for their psyches.
And unfortunately I was right. Because people’s brains will twist them into absolute pretzels to avoid being forced to recognize that they were wrong about this, and the inevitable questions that would raise about the risks they took - ESPECIALLY for their kids. (See thread)
You don’t need cognitive impairment to explain this, b/c we are wired neurobiologically to try to protect our minds from trauma - often to the point of cognitive dissonance. Drs were/are exposed so much that it makes sense they’d subconsciously NEED to downplay the seriousness…
Lots of CC folks hypothesized last yr that once a large % of people were hit with LC and once spikes in heart attacks/strokes, the obvious signs of immune damage, & significant cognitive problems(esp in kids & teens) became clear, the tide would shift. I disagreed.
I fully believe they will take their grief and anger out on people who sounded the alarm on the risks of these pandemics, by labeling us the “ones who cried wolf” and insisting WE’RE the ones responsible then for THEIR unsafe choices. I don’t think we’ll be validated at all.
“If you guys hadn’t been so nasty about people eating in restaurants & going to crowded indoor events when Covid was over, ppl would have actually listened when warned about H5N1! You made it so everyone tuned out and ignored that stuff, and now people died because of you!”
I think at that point people will actually BLAME those of us who stayed vigilant about Covid. “If y’all hadn’t kept trying to shove masks down everyone’s throat when they weren’t necessary, people wouldn’t have been so resistant now when they could have actually helped!” Etc
First off, folks would take the very successful “ “lockdowns’ & school closures turned out to be an unnecessary overreaction that caused deep & lasting harm” rhetoric & use it as the basis to REFUSE any similar measures for H5N1 - and the CDC would go along with that.
Keeping your hands clean, one day at a time during an AIRBORNE pandemic .. Yup, checks out 🫠

Yesterday I had preventive surgery (small surgery, I’m ok) because I have a family doctor who referred me to an excellent surgeon. None of that would be possible without our excellent doctors. One day, we’ll all be patients. Happy #DoctorsDay to my colleagues and my doctors.
Happy #DoctorsDay to all @OntariosDoctors! Your dedication, compassion, and expertise make a world of difference. Thank you for your unwavering commitment to providing exceptional care. Let's support our doctors for a strong health-care system. #Onhealth
In case you were wondering, this "parent" discussion about cellphones being an #onted distraction includes at least 5 cellphones (Lecces looks under his leg) and 1 tablet on the table. The "out of sight, out of mind" motto came from meetings where everyone had devices in sight..
Appreciate the advice of parents on the need to crack down on vaping and cell phone usage in class. Going #BackToBasics starts with keeping students focused on the curriculum by removing distractions. Great discussion on mental health, cyberbullying, and the importance of…
@Kidsdoc1Rick @JennaACunninham @GracieWestWords That's because people share the exact steps to get around it on social media, the go radio silent when cases are all around their group of friends.
@JennaACunninham @GracieWestWords Which is why battling disinformation is so vitally important. Public health has fostered this illusion that kids have to be immunized mandatorily ;for those who mistrust/don’t understand science and are led astray know how to work around this. PH can only do so much.
@GracieWestWords @Kidsdoc1Rick It’s a public health threat.
2 more cases of confirmed measles in our local school. Both children unimmunized. ☹️ As physicians particularly when kids need admission for complications we struggle with; •What more could I have done? •How could I have communicated better? Hope they recover well.
Looking forward to #UWTL2024 @UWaterloo tomorrow! I’ll be speaking at a workshop about online grad seminar courses and their value for students with diverse needs, emphasizing inclusion & safety during the ongoing spread of SARS-CoV-2. 🔗 uwaterloo.ca/uw-teaching-an… Wish me luck!
I promise you it’s far easier to advocate from a position of health & strength… so join us. Be our allies. Listen & believe us when we tell stories of unsafe spaces, eugenics and discrimination. Help us change things so that everyone will be better off. /end
Please remember this the next time you’re entering a public space without a mask. Or tempted to mock a vulnerable person for wearing one. Or accessing healthcare. If it’s easy for you access care - try and imagine how scary it would be if it wasn’t. /10
