Rabies is 100% fatal if untreated. Please help spread the word about the exposure at the Farm Adventures mobile petting zoo in North Carolina. The vaccine is incredibly effective and will save your life. Also…. Rabies at a petting zoo!?!? www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Believe the science. It is literally written in stone. Vaccinate.
Imagine working in (on?) a floating hospital in Queen Charlotte Sound BC in the 1920s, caring for loggers! Pre-air ambulances, (pre-BCAS), pre-almost all of the trauma care/knowledge we now have. Wow.
Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines. When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.
Canadian grocers need to step up and stop importing when we have Canadian. It should not just be individual Canadians stepping up our corporations have a duty too. Thanks for posting this and helping this Canadian producer.

Worked in ER today. Accidentally said "fuck" when tab on a new brief ripped. When I left the room to get another brief, the pt said to the care aide "I feel more comfortable here now". 🤷♂️🙄
The BC Community Bat Program is reminding people it's normal to see a solitary bat roosting out in the open this time of year. They're just resting, be quiet and they'll fly off in the evening. Never handle a bat because there is a risk of rabies. If there's a bat on the ground call 1-855-9BC-BATS.

No, Raw milk is not healthier for you than pasteurized milk. No, vaccines don't cause autism. No, that common food additive is not "toxic" or "poison". JFC, people, use your damn brains and stop buying into this ignorant bullshit. These are not controversial takes. MAHA & Anti-vaxxers are WRONG.

I stand with Dr. Anthony Fauci …because I value EVIDENCE over conspiracy, DATA over rumors, and SCIENCE over politics. No public official is beyond criticism, but there’s a difference between honest scientific guidance and misinformation. I’ll choose evidence EVERY time. #medsky #publichealth
Hi. Please don’t decline your glucose tolerance test if you’re pregnant.
Smith wants Alberta to deny healthcare to immigrants to justify her racism Fun fact: "In Canada, immigrants make up 25% of registered nurses 42% of nurse aides and related occupations 43% of pharmacists 37% of physicians 45% of dentists 61% of dental technologists and related occupations" #ableg
Why don't tv shows check medical stuff before they record? "The Commander", Season 2, Episode 4, the opiate-naive police commander takes *a tumblerful* of her dead sister's 10mg/5ml liquid Morphine. So - 400mg? And...has a weird sleep. 🙄🙄🙄
I’m making this abundantly fucking clear: 1. VACCINES DO NOT FUCKING CAUSE AUTISM, GODFUCKINGDAMNIT! 2. Even if they did, being autistic is better than burying your fucking loved ones-or dying a painful, awful, preventable death.
The ONLY study to EVER allege a connection was found w/falsified data & the lead scientist stood to make like $48 million off of fraudulent "autism testing kits" or some bullshit-- The Trump admin's evil knows no end. Spreading fatal diseases, stigma + lies.

CDC has updated its vaccine safety pages. Now says: "The claim 'vaccines do not cause autism' is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism." Whoa #EpiSky #pediatrics #NeuroSky #PsychSky

Boycott the US DO NOT BUY US PRODUCTS DO NOT SELL US PRODUCTS Hit them where it hurts, stop handing evil our money!! Keep our 🇨🇦 $$ in Canada, it will help Canadians and our country. The sooner we all work to together we can move away from this corrupt administration.
Picketing at NRGH, to support @BC Nurses Union colleagues. We're supported by our HSA and HEU colleagues. Lots of support from passersby, who clearly realize who is needed in healthcare, even though the government doesn't.
BC's premier has been all over SM today, first to brag about Vancouver hosting FIFA, next to brag that BC rents are down 5% (5% of the highest rents in the country 🙄). A pathetic attempt to distract the public from the nurses' strike. 🤬
