A positive troponin is not an MI. A positive BNP is not heart failure. A positive lactate is not sepsis. Please for the good of society can this be properly taught in all medical training programs?

Astounding: 40% of students at Dublin med school are Canadians. Thousands of Canadians are getting medical degrees abroad because it's so difficult to get into Canadian schools. And it's also hard for them to return to practice at home. theglobeandmail.com/canada/a…
Canadian medical grads trained abroad are increasingly giving up on their home country for work

Canadian medical grads trained abroad are increasingly giving up on their home country for work

Canada’s health care system needs physicians to fill important gaps, but it has also set up barriers for international graduates to practise here instead of the U.S., Britain and Australia

The moment you've all been waiting for! You've heard of Elf on the Shelf, now get ready for... 🤔 #MLSelfontheshelf
An elf on the shelf meme showing a jar of sweetened hazelnut cocoa spread on a percutaneous mechanical circulatory device sitting across the aortic valve, supplementing cardiac output and reducing LVEDP... Can you tell what it is?

Apparently "Died Suddenly" is trending, which means it's time to point out that COVID vaccines have saved tens of millions of lives worldwide, hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin STILL don't work against COVID, and Bitcoin is down by more than 50% YTD. Have a nice day.

It is remarkable seeing some patients at greatest risk for severe COVID infection now cared for in out-of-hospital settings thanks to booster vaccines & therapeutics.

The @SCC_CCS updated their Heart Failure Pocket guide last year! These are great little resources with "need to know" information pulled right out of their guidelines. Check it out. ccs.ca/pocket-guides/ (Free PDF available)

To physicians who say children don’t need a Covid-19 vaccine: do you also advocate against other vaccines for diseases that cause fewer pediatric deaths than Covid? How many vaccine preventable deaths makes a vaccine worth it? If you don’t believe in vaccines, why be in medicine?

Aaron Rodgers: Lied. Spread misinformation. Put others in danger...and gets fined $14,650. Colin Kaepernick: Told the truth. Silently protested. Fought for social justice...and gets canceled from football for 500+ days. How does this make ANY sense?

Two striking things about this trial report: -It only took 13 days for this study to complete enrolment. -More than 99% of enrolled children came back for the second dose. Speaks to the intense desire of so many parents to have their children vaccinated as soon as possible.

We’re in the middle of a public health emergency with unprecedented healthcare utilization One shot of vaccine markedly reduces death hospital and icu Now isn’t the time to comparison shop - understand risks, but get the first vaccine you’re offered tgam.ca/3eoVY0p

Opinion: This is not the time to comparison shop for COVID-19 vaccines

The benefits of being vaccinated sooner outweigh every other metric at this stage of the pandemic

#BREAKING: Peel Region orders all businesses with 5+ recent work-acquired #COVID19 cases to shut down immediately. Kudos to Dr Loh for doing what the government of Ontario won’t do: Help save the lives of essential workers.
NEW - BC Government will be requiring businesses to pay employees if they must take time off while getting their COVID-19 vaccine. #bcpoli
