  1. Want to ease the burden of health-care costs, and especially hospitalization?

    Easy. Just spend whatever it costs to provide all Canadians with free vaccinations — for life.

  3. Accompanied my Mom to doctor's appointment this morning. This was mainly for getting another prescription for her recurring gout issue. She got a physical checkup too. Her doctor & his MOA were masked up. None of the other medical clinic staff & no other patients were masked.

    Location of masking report: Burnside Medical Clinic - office in lower part of building - there's a different office with same name on main level.

  8. I blast highway to hell, almost every time I have to go to hospital for work or personal related reasons. It's hellish for #ZeroCovid disabled folks like me because our hospitals aren't really covid safe & they haven't been safe for a few years now. It is where Dad & big Auntie were infected. Mask policy returned to hospitals recently but almost all staff just wear the flimsy surgical blue masks. I wear my own N95s & use a nasal spray for additional protection.
    I'll be playing highway to hell again at 10am because I have to go to VGH for a client meeting.

  9. IMPORTANT #BC #COVID #Vaccination:

    Confirmed by my local Shoppers pharmacist that COVID XBB vaccines are available WITHOUT AN APPOINTMENT (Walk in) at the same time as Flu Vaccine.

    Don't wait for the stupid electronic invite! Boost this!

  10. Just a reminder to #BCcovid folks, you can get #vaccine right away in the States. I got mine last Saturday.

    Notes:

    • only Walgreens and CVS can give out free vaccine to the uninsured now (used to be any pharmacy could)
    • Walgreens is more prevalent near us, and they have mostly #Pfizer, but you can get #Moderna if you search for it
    • #Novavax isn't authorized yet, also note it was never carried by Walgreens in the past, so don't get hopes up.
