It's sad that this still needs to be said, but things that *do not* prove that someone is not a harasser include:
"They're a great scientist"
"They are a really nice person"
"They've never done that to me"

I worry about my ICU Nurse daughter’s mental health every day too. Proud of my @olivia_kaack 💞 – at East Hants, Nova Scotia
“We are always 3 nurses short, Mom, & we must get everything done anyway.” Anguish, stress, the looming #mentalhealth storm was palpable. Nurses did not sign up for this; my girl did not sign up for this. 23 yo & #burningout. Who will take care of you? #nurseshortage #onthealth
