SIMPLE: Sending folk with COVID into workplaces and schools might actually spread the disease

If a leader wanted to infect as many of their citizens w/ Covid as possible, what would they do? βœ… End mask & vaccine mandates βœ… End isolation rules for those infected βœ… Stop testing So, why on earth is Doug Ford doing this⁉️

So inspired by the strength of my students who are fasting through 12hrs clinic shifts and wearing a mask this Ramadan. My other students and I agreed to structure our breaks to accommodate their prayer time.

Maybe a journalist could do a day in the life piece on one of Ontario's seemingly silent MOHs as our current wave builds exponentially? What are they actually doing? Because out here, it appears to be nothing other than shoring up inaction and I really don't want that to be true.

"Oil=Death" Never truer than in this war #RenewableEnergy is freedom from the #Oiligarchs
XR Tyneside activists stood on roof of Rosneft Marine UK in London this morning to draw attention to this oil company helping to fuel the war in Ukraine #EndFossilFuels #StandWithUkraine

Maybe after this wave is over we mount a massive public health campaign explaining why if we don't again pretend pandemic's done & instead bolster protections, we might actually avoid, or at very least minimize, the next wave, and in so doing, start learning to live with COVID?

Making it a personal choice, guess what Doug did? We're mad at each other instead of him. That's what he wanted. Keep the focus on Doug and Dr. Moore. #onpoli

If you're a worker in Ontario and believe you have been exposed to or contracted #COVID19 while at work, complete @WSIB exposure incident report. #Onlab #Onted #Onthealth wsib.ca/en/forms

Classes are not being cancelled β€œdue to staffing shortages.” Classes are being cancelled b/c too many staff have Covid b/c the Ford govt have removed protocols. COVID IS THE REASON Call out govt negligence while supporting staff #onted #onpoli #CovidIsntOver #WearAMask

It's really sad seeing all of these small businesses closing indefinitely b/c of staffing shortages from Covid-related illnesses. Doug Ford is not only a disaster for our health: His incompetence is crushing our economy. #OnPoli #VoteFordOut2022
