💔 If I was a HCW, I’d have to quit because of moral distress.The only reason the general public like me know about how horrendous the HC/ER situation really is is because of social media/people like you. So individuals will get blamed & the general public won’t hear about the systemic chaos.
A tonne of mask articles out on UK media this morning.
Must be bad there.
And likely reflects North Americas near future.
This is the best mask article in the bunch. www.independent.co.uk/news/health/...
Just overheard convo betw 2 HCWs about loads of people cancelling appts due to respiratory illness.They said they don’t want to get sick so are sanitizing everything. I sooo wanted to tell them that clean air would probably help more. Public health is failing us. 😷
More like “surrender” deals…
Unbearably hard, yes. I try not to think of all that I’m missing, and carry on.
Read this twice.

“Our findings redefine SARS-CoV-2 infection as a condition of long-lasting immune compromise.”
Putting it all together:
- covid is airborne
- people are getting it repeatedly
- it’s wrecking immune systems
Please: mask, ventilate, filtrate, isolate, immunize.

Still, you took the time to write. Thank you from an extremely disheartened Albertan. 🙏🏻
Let this serve as a cautionary tale about AI in any environment, let alone in healthcare.
And the issues we will face as individuals use agentic AI tools.
It’s high time Min Solomon take an interest in developing regulations around AI, at least with public

I’ve never seen Calgary voting lineups before like this! My husband had 8 people ahead of him first thing and it took him 40 minutes to vote. I’m told my wait will be 80 minutes. What’s up?!?!

The human heart is
The size of a
Fist
Clenched.
Indefatigable, and infallible
On pain of death.
And yet it skips
At the most curious
Times,
To remind us of its finite
Beats.
And perhaps to attend us
To use them both wisely
And with abandon.
