Hello, I’m Dr Kaplan-Myrth, a family doctor in Canada. I also refuse to be an accomplice in the (re)infection of my patients and community. I will do what I can to prevent spread of #COVID19, to educate people about #LongCovid, and to take care of others. How about you? #COVIDisAirborne #MaskUp

@nilikm TY for protecting yourself and others. I'm also a fan of the 3M Aura N95 masks. They're my go to ones when around others and/or indoors.

@nilikm hello dr, are you in the vicinity of saskatoon, and if so, are you taking patients?
I kid (no I don’t).
Air high five for masking.

@nilikm Doing my best. However, my 89 year old mom’s primary care physician is so excited about not having to wear a mask. We still do. Sigh.

@nilikm hell yes, #StillMasking. Still talking about #LongCovid, but most don’t want to hear it anymore.

@nilikm I am still masking indoors and alot of the times, I am the only one.
My elderly parenst are vaccinated but not masking. I try to talk to them about long covid but they say that's for people with health issues. My parents have health issues. And no, long covid is not just people with health problems.

@nilikm we mask on planes, train and in stores. If I’m visiting my doc, I mask. I have a small bubble of folks who when visiting we don’t mask. We only dine out when the test positivity rate is under 5%. Really disappointed that #BC is not reporting #covid #case rate as now we don’t have that info to make an informed choice.

@nilikm KN95, Corsi box for rapidly eliminating most droplets plus a slower HEPA to finish the job, patients required to wear procedure masks (not just floppy line-of-sight blockers) properly. 👍

I can't keep people from infecting themselves elsewhere, but they're going to have a hard time transmitting it to anyone who visits our office. 😌 (Kudos to the provider who stands behind it despite the US deciding we should ignore COVID to make it go away - including in medical offices.)
