    Wife brought 2yo to bed. Shortly after, he slowly emerged from the bedroom, with her still in it. He quietly carefully slowwwwly closed the door behind him, while backing out and gesturing to her "shhhhhhh" the whole way. Then left her in there and came to join us.

    Dear colleagues - if you’re seeing strokes more and more in adults in their 20s 30s 40s, you got to raise that alarm.

    A 40 year old just died from Covid in Hamilton. But remember: When someone your age dies of Covid, the most important thing to do is find a way in which they were different from you. That way you can keep on living as if the pandemic doesn't exist.

    Stop calling new variants Omicron. Having three kids overwhelms me but I don’t name them all Kevin.

    I don’t know how to say this in a half acceptable way, but it’s just bog standard epidemiology that eventually someone rich and famous will have to become just f*cked by this virus in order for everyone to give a damn.

    The social contract for flatulence is stronger than for not spreading disease.

    I haven’t been pandemic-wrong since washing my groceries so I’m just going to say it: Repeated covid infections are going to keep happening and are going to ruin children organ by organ, and are absolutely preventable with current technology if we just use it.

    Lol the doctor in Ontario saying medical patients shouldn’t have to mask because they don’t have to mask at the dentist. You can mask until in the dental chair, just like you wear pants to the urologist.

    Hey colleagues. I worked with a resident physician the other day who is pregnant and wears an N95 to protect herself and her baby. Why aren’t you all doing the same to protect her and her baby? It’s a workplace and trainee safety issue.

    A seemingly fragile elderly person came into soccer tonight wearing a KN95 to watch their grandkid play and every adult in the stands pulled a similar mask out and put it on. It was beautiful. Lol just kidding but that would have been amazing.

    Just a reminder that I’m still doing Covid precautions and I’m awesome - in case anyone needs the solidarity.

    Where you think the hepatitis comes from doesn’t change the fact that we need to stop structurally forcing children to get covid. Maybe they don’t want covid. Maybe future them doesn’t want covid.
