I started studying the anti-vaccine movement more than fifteen years ago along with one of my colleagues, Dr. Kacey Ernst. It was clear to us even then that this movement was organized, effective, and growing.

Unfortunately, many of our colleagues at the time felt it wasn’t a problem. 1/2

Alberta's role in Canada's loss of measles elimination status embarrassing, former chief medical officer says | CBC News The latest federal data shows Alberta accounts for 38 per cent of Canada’s cases.

β€œA lot of people worked for a long time to achieve that measles elimination status, and to lose it in one year because of a failure of government action … for a disease that’s totally preventable, it just makes me sad."

-Dr. James Talbot, former CMOH for Alberta.

Why long COVID hits women harder than men Women are about three times more likely than men to develop long COVID, and many experience symptoms that linger and intensify.

Alberta's role in Canada's loss of measles elimination status embarrassing, former chief medical officer says | CBC News The latest federal data shows Alberta accounts for 38 per cent of Canada’s cases.

Alberta represents 12% of Canada's total population and 40% of current measles cases.

This is because Alberta's UCP is doing a shitty job.

Alberta is the richest province in Canada, packed with talent & all the gifts.

There's no excuse.

Tax cuts for the wealthy only benefit the rich | LSE Research Trickle-down economic policies are destined to fail, research suggests. David Hope explains why the issue is so controversial.

Many regular Albertans still believe that if the O&G corps are making money that they will do well financially

This is not true

Gone are the days when O&G needed Albertan workers & paid them well

Automation has stolen those jobs

Restrictions on fetal tissue research would threaten progress on breakthrough treatments for devastating diseases β€” and yet not prevent a single abortion The U.S. government may restrict funding for research that uses human fetal tissue. The move would undermine medical science and prolong patients' suffering from devastating diseases.

Human fetal tissue research has saved millions of lives and continues to drive biomedical innovation. Restricting it would not alter abortion rates, it would force scientists to discard an irreplaceable research resource for treating devastating diseases.
