@CMA_Docs From an MD - what nonsense. Grow the bloody help up, CMA, stop being so political and actually do some good work like fighting for public healthcare in this damn country which is being systematically dismantled and appropriate support for the poor, disabled and disadvantaged.

@DeVerdadera1 From a humble old, unknown cardiologist. Hell yes, follow the lead of your EP cardiologist. I too am seeing lots and lots of arrhythmias, many other cardiac and vascular abnormalities as well as autonomic nervous system abnormalities pst COVID. But what do I know??

@FourWinns298 WHAT?????? That is obscene. Good for you for telling them off. That child does not understand consequences, because they have not been taught properly. It could, have been fatal for the child. Terrible, irresponsible parent behaviour.

Superb thread about the cruel, eugenicist mask bans proposed in North Carolina. This will happen all over Canada, the USA, Western Europe and many other countries without fierce opposition. Thank you for your courage and integrity, @broadwaybabyto . Idiot trolls get blocked.

It took me years to admit I was disabled. I was scared of judgement & discrimination. But even my worst fears didn’t come close to what I feel now. I’ve never been more scared & it’s not fear of covid. I’m afraid of the rise of eugenics, anger & where society is headed. 🧵/1

@birgitomo All health care professionals, unless there is a very good reason, should be fully vaccinated. ALL OF THEM. The nurses should NOT be singled out for this. Any one working in congregate settings or with vulnerable people must be vaccinated.
