It continues to be difficult for a lot of people in Ontario to get their seasonal vaccines.

"It was so much simpler when we were able to go to an immunization clinic hosted by our health unit but that's not an option for people under 65 anymore."

Having a terrible time getting our latest COVID and flu shots.

Shoppers called us on Friday to cancel the appointment that had originally been booked for 11/4. Couldn't rebook because they didn't know when they'd be getting more COVID shots. "Call us in a week. We should know more by then." 🤦🏻‍♀️

"Getting a timely referral to a medical specialist now takes so long in Ontario that patients are reduced to scouring Facebook & WhatsApp groups to find where help is available, the association representing the province’s physicians says," writes @tuthanhha.bsky.social.

Ontario municipal election day. Without any future leaders looking to public health with acknowledgement & action on the ongoing, airborne pandemic, we're not feeling too confident in their ability to act on anything else for their local communities.✘ #ONpoli #ONhealth #TOpoli

Stop conflating. Covid is the priority. Still not the flu. Still not seasonal. Still not something you can vax your way out of. The question is: what ELSE have you been doing to stop the spread ALL YEAR. #CovidIsAirborne #ONhealth #StayHome #StopTheSpread

Horror stories of privatization and the impacts of the chronic underfunding of healthcare in Ontario by Doug Ford. We need more frontline healthcare workers like @robinlennoxmd.bsky.social in the legislature who understand the current reality.

Welcome to “concierge care”: the Ford govt is underfunding public healthcare providers while enriching private clinics, which are siphoning cash from the public system & using loopholes to charge fees for faster access to medically necessary care www.thestar.com/opinion/cont... #onpoli #ONhealth
Iris Gorfinkel: How Doug Ford’s health plan costs taxpayers billions — and privatization is making it fail
To save universal health care, Ontario must reverse its path. Funding private clinics drains our public system, poaching staff and siphoning taxpayer dollars from front-line care.

Ford promised to end hallway medicine in 2018. 8 years later, over half of ER patients who need a bed can't get one. That's not a blip. That's a broken promise - and a health system in crisis. Protect Ontario? Start with the ER. #ONhealth #ONpoli
