Reflections after a year of caring for inpatients with COVID: 1. This third wave really is different, with very sick young patients 2. Many are previously healthy and have no idea how they acquired it 3. It's remarkable how treatment has evolved

COVID ward observation: our older hospitalized patients often do not use phones/tablets and are desperate for newspapers, other reading material and radios. Wish these were more available on the wards.

In my 7 days on one of our (now 12!) non ICU #COVID19 units, I admitted 58 patients for COVID rule out, of whom 50 tested positive. Two died (DNR), 2 went to hospice, and 5 went to the ICU. That is… not my typical gen med service week. Following, some clinical observations.

Outstanding oped by @DrFahadRazak @cdavidnaylor @globeandmail on how both government and "Canada's citizenry - the epidemic's unsung heroes" can mitigate the greatest healthcare crisis Canada has ever faced

The Third Wave of COVID-19 is the greatest healthcare crisis Canada has faced. Our @GlobeDebate OpEd. Its a consequential statement I would never feel comfortable making without the deep experience and knowledge of @cdavidnaylor and Art Slutsky. 1/n

Thanks @Derek_Leong_RPh for nominating me for #7Books . No reviews. Just covers. One cover a day for a week. Each day I’ll ask someone else to take up the challenge. Day 1: "Lives of Girls and Women" by the great Alice Munro. I nominate @NadineNabdullah to share her favourites.

@maximebillick @nationalpost @TorontoStar Yes - although our newspapers are struggling too. Would be better yet if there were a generous donor to help with this.
