“I’m only a GP. And I’m shocked at how some of my specialist colleagues think they are not harming patients by not masking.

I’m not smart. But come on! Covid is airborne and Covid HARMS every bit of your body. How can a highly intelligent Dr NOT KNOW THIS???”

“At the peak of the late-summer Covid wave, U.S. health systems were testing approximately evenly for COVID, flu, & RSV.

Yet, nearly all positive cases were Covid.

PublicHealth guidance must disabuse the myth that Covid conforms to the flu/RSV seasonal pattern.”

…Some see mucosal vaccines as the best hope to end the COVID-19 pandemic. They are now in development in labs around the world, including in Canada. The United States and other countries are investing heavily in the development of mucosal vaccines for COVID-19 and beyond.”

Opinion: What you should know about COVID this fall
Opinion: What you should know about COVID this fall

“How is COVID-19 spread? When people cough, sneeze or talk, viral particles can be sent through the air and via droplets. Masking helps to prevent droplet spread, and keeping more than two metres apart and staying in a well-ventilated area can help to limit aerosol spread.

While not a predominant cause of transmission, COVID-19 can also be spread through objects contaminated with secretions from an infected person. The incubation period for COVID-19 — the time from exposure to developing an infection — is about two to four days with the current variant.”

“For the week of September 22, stats from the Canadian Nosocomial (Hospital-Acquired) Infection Surveillance Program, with data from 78 hospitals, including 16 in BC, show that 31% of patients in hospital with COVID acquired their infection while admitted for another medical condition.

This is a major failure by public health and Infection Prevention and Control (IPAC).”

A is circulating (unfortunately spread and amplified by a famous virologist) claiming that is now like influenza.
A is circulating (unfortunately spread and amplified by a famous virologist) claiming that is now like influenza.

In 2024, the facts are clear: COVID far outpaced flu in infections, hospitalizations, and deaths.

COVID also carries the added burden of long COVID, a far more complex, multi-system condition than the long-term effects seen with flu.

COVID is not like the flu. It never was!
