after listening to the news this morning 14 yr old says: “It’s strange that people think that a vaccine that has helped millions of people will kill them but a virus that has killed millions of people won’t.”

There appear to be some rumours that the Science Advisory Table is withholding a consensus model of COVID-19 in the Fall. To be absolutely clear, that is not true. Pls read thread 1/4

We are devastated to share the tragic news of the sudden passing of our friend and colleague Dr. Ainsley Moore. Dr. Moore was an integral part of our clinic and @McMasterFamMed for many years and will be missed immensely. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends. – at Hamilton, Ontario

COVID@Home Monitoring for #PrimaryCare is a new initiative supported by @McMasterFamMed @HamiltonFamMed clinical pathways. It supports providers in monitoring #COVID19 patients in the home & community using oxygen saturation monitors provided by @ONThealth ow.ly/lCnZ50EY3E4
Kudos to the Digital Team at @OntarioHealthOH, @OntarioEMRs, and the Ministry for getting COVID vaccination HRM notifications to family physicians in patient-enrolled models! It took a village but we were able to use multiple data assets to make this work!

Patients are saying it’s a huge comfort to be treated at home for COVID by a care team that knows them well. Last week, I shadowed our amazing PA on her monitoring calls, as she advised patients and answered their questions. Then dropped a pulse ox to a patient’s home.
