Alberta - resource rich, morality poor.

I do not blame the man for choosing to die with dignity rather than live & die on the street. Our system creates and then neglects our most vulnerable. But sure, Dani, the Feds are the enemy. The #alberta advantage, my ass

Fauci: “It is our collective responsibility to ensure that public health policy decisions are driven by the best available data.

Opinion | Anthony Fauci: A Message to the Next Generation of Scientists

As he prepares to retire, “America’s doctor” discusses his work developing AIDS treatments and helping the nation navigate the coronavirus pandemic. 

Hey, #MedMastodon, show some love to the Global Public Health eXchange, (https://gphx.org) our brand new project that is born out of the need to connect students and practitioners of #PublicHealth to come together and exchange ideas!

@scepticemia, @parthsharma13, & I have been interviewing some amazing people and getting to know why they chose Public Health. Hoping their trajectories can help other early career folks pave their own paths.

Hey #bookstodon ! I'm reading Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert A. Heinlein - I'm about a third of the way through and enjoying it so far. Have really delved into some classic #scifi in the past year, but any recommendations for some modern SciFi reads that may not be on my radar?
To help make connections: name 5-7 things that interest you but aren't in your profile, as tags so they are searchable. Then boost this post and repeat its instructions so others know to do the same. #ADHD #crochet #SciFi #Epidemiology #Traumainformedcare #SUD
