I personally feel like the free flow of information is critical right now. Being that a lot of you are in the healthcare field, I wanted to share this website with you. I keep seeing and hearing across significant chunks of social media (Twitter/X, Facebook, TikTok, etc) that information from the CDC and other agencies in the U.S. government is becoming difficult to find or even being removed in some cases especially on vaccines. I’m honestly hoping that’s just temporary or not as significant as they’re saying, but part of me feels like it isn’t an accident or part of a transition. Here’s our Public Health of Canada website if you’re looking for information to share with your patients or even just information for yourself. As of right now, Canada follows the CDC on a lot of recommendations. This will likely change if the U.S. goes in a “different” direction. That’s the most polite description I could think of as I’m trying to keep any opinions I have about this out of this post. I hope this helps at least with continuing to access information. There are videos and information posters and everything is aimed at the general public making it really easy to understand. The Canada-U.S. relationship may be quite strained right now, but feel free to use our resources if you need them. 😊https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health.html
Mrs. DoggMD and I hiked up to the top of a crazy temple and cemetery called Otani Sobyo above Kyoto this morning. Pure madness 🔥 and HELLLA G-HOSTS!
Religion doesn't make us better or worse. We make religion better or worse.
Between the USSR and People's Republic of China, the deaths of 70,000,000 to 100,000,000 were caused by an antireligion belief system that cast its leaders (Stalin, Mao, Lenin, Marx, and so forth) as religious figures. Those who did live, lived in terror of being seen as the enemy of the people. Socialism/Communism (Communism has never been tried and all Communist countries are Socialist) doesn't work as advertised, but it never accepts fault so it has to murder and use terror to cover for the failure of its leaders and system. This has been proven for over a century and has become axiomatic.
If you believe that Christians, Muslims, Atheists, or any group (Even Communists and Socialists!) is standing between you and a perfect world, you're a monster. Perhaps you're a restrained monster at this moment, but the moment you have the power to suppress and oppress classes that you deem to be enemies of "The Good," you ...
