One of my stats lecturers in a livestream class stood at the front of the classroom in a respirator mask and said she couldn't afford to get Covid, she had very important things to do next week. I could tell right away I picked the right class - math is mathing

If you learn about what long covid is and pay attention to the people around you, you're going to see people fully recover from the acute infection but develop textbook symptoms in the weeks-months following "the flu" and not put two and two together. Each infection raises the risk.

Is COVID surging in Ontario? I think it is. Wastewater surveillance lags about 2 weeks (which yes, mostly defeats its purpose). It reads as low/moderate. But in other jurisdictions around us it's surging. Anecdotally, I see a big bump in infections among people I know, just in the last week. 1/4

Anyone ever think of mandatory masking? 🤦🏻‍♀️ "Everyone that works or receives care at our hospital is required to wear a mask while on the outbreak unit. Masks are also encouraged but not required while in other areas of the hospital."

For Canadian’s safety, food labelling must improve. Our rules look excellent on paper - but in practice, my husband bought spinach marked Canadian on the front BUT at the back, in small letters, marked product of 🇨🇦 and 🇺🇸 @mark-carney.bsky.social #Canada inspection.canada.ca/en/food-labe...
In Canada, food labelling responsibilities are shared between two main authorities:
- Health Canada
Under the Food and Drugs Act, Health Canada is responsible for administering laws and regulations concerning the health, safety and nutritional quality of food sold in Canada.
- Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA)
The CFIA is responsible for enforcing certain regulations under the Food and Drugs Act as well as establishing and administering regulations stemming from the Safe Food for Canadians Act.

Four light brown deer are frolicking in a shallow pool of water amongst the seaweed-covered rocks of the intertidal zone at low tide. More seaweed-covered rocks are in the foreground and the calm ocean water is behind the deer.
