Happy Halloween! 🦄

We miss you Jordan. This is from 2019.

It's such a dream of mine to be able to live a half-ways normal life and the answer to that is air standards. And as Canada pays for health care, it's a cost effective measure to prevent infection and disability as well
This one too. Wearing my 92 World Series Champions Hat while watching the game
Carney can see investing in physical infrastructure, why he can't see investing in research? Now is the time to invest more, and take advantage of that brain drain from the united states

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.
So ridiculous. I always wore one at work at the height of the pandemic when I was working up to 12 hour days in the pharmacy. I still would be but I am off work with long covid. So frustrating when HC professionals won't look after peoples' health without being asked
It's amazing that there are 400 million of us yet most of us feel quite alone with it. It's not only disabling but also isolating

This has been shown to actually increase wait times overall. Another uninformed, unCanadian decision by the UCP
Wow. Seems the educator needs some education.
No problem. If you have a facebook account, I recommend joining Covid Long-Haulers Support Group Canada. They can definitely help with a lot of tips and support and a bunch of us are health care workers too. Good luck with your vaccination should you choose to go ahead
Hi Linda! I am a pharmacist with long covid-please listen to your dr.Another serious case of covid could worsen long covid Also many with LC find it difficult to fight off infection and are sick longer.You can't know how you will react until you take it, but most are fine. LC may even improve
COVID vaccines save lives, reduce the burden on hospitals and can reduce your risk of Post Covid Condition. AND it saves money. The Alberta government can not justify restricting and charging for the vaccine with facts. They are just catering to their base.
The Government of Alberta has referred to COVID vaccines as “an expensive intervention,” to justify a vaccine policy based on pre-ordering, radically reducing community access and charging most Albertans to receive the vaccine. Here are the facts. www.albertadoctors.org/news/publica...
How??? My area in ward 4 was 1-2 hours almost all day
Well yes, that's why I was a proud "sheep" before and now a total nonconformist. Because it's about health, not politics. And I actually don't care if I stick out in a crowd. I always said that I don't mind being the smartest person on the room 😅
And clearly not just "sheep" as anyone still wearing a mask now is definitely going against the grain, albeit with the data
Register for your flu and covid vaccine-.for next year! UCP is really catering to their anti-vax base
as possible from getting vaccinated.

The ONLY reasons to do this are to get more people infected, overwhelm the public healthcare system, destroy it, and usher in private healthcare.

There are zero defensible economic or efficiency reasons to do this. Zero.

It’s anti-life.

That is nuts. They do not do pre-orders for vaccine until the spring/ summer before. You are correct- just deliberately making it harder to get vaccinated. Just one step from banning altogether. Tired of UCP working for their anti-vax base. Most Albertans believe in vaccines.
Omg Ontario Dr's are the worst for this. No it won't. We have been doing it in Alberta for almost 20 years and it works well. Yes, we want patients to have a family Dr. But expanded scope is valuable for patients for when they can't get in, or when they can't find one.
Part of it is difficulty finding g places to set up. You wouldn't believe the amount of places that refuse to have e us on the property. Too "political"
Our petition is to stay in Canada. It was launched early to thwart the separatists as if successful they will not be able to have an referendum for separation for at least 5 years. Also, hoping to show that the majority of Albertans have no interest in leaving the country at all
Also remember that forever Canada petition can only be signed in person, so if you think you have signed online- you haven't
