Ear Candy: How Hearing Protection Became Cool | The Walrus Club goers, screaming Swifties, and city dwellers are all embracing a life with less noise

For World Hearing Day, here's my reporting on how earplugs became cool for @thewalrus.ca

This came out last year. The piece means a lot to me because it includes some of my personal story

It's loud out there—get some hearing protection, folks!

As a father to young kids, I know way more about Pokémon than I ever imagined even possible

Shout out today to the Pokémon with the best name, Flabébé

Thanks for trusting me with the story. It's an important message!

I reported on a new museum in Canada dedicated to peace. Not a federal project, but a grassroots organization

What's the saying about never doubting that a small group of committed citizens can change the world?

Is Ontario a fair place for internationally trained physicians? Aspects of this provincial healthcare system suggest entrenched financial interests are a higher priority than patients

Yes some of this has been reported in years past. But are we addressing it yet? #CDNHealth #CDNPoli #HealthInfrastructure #medsky #healthsky

This is a compelling stat, but do we have the doctors and nurses to care for people, whether or not they have a bed??

Merch Has Become as Much a Part of the Concert Experience as Music │ Exclaim! "You buy the merch and then you take pictures with your friends"

Anyone have fun pics with merch from recent shows? #music #musicsky

Violence in hospitals is a symptom of larger issues Metal detectors are coming to a hospital near you

So do we treat the symptom, or tackle the causes? #healthsky #medsky

Wild, indeed!

Lots of red flags here

Protein is politics, sex, and money Is protein a healthcare concern?

Ah, protein ... #medsky #fitnesssky #gymsky

Yuka should be used for feeding tickets We know too much about food and beauty products not to act

Anyone using Yuka? #healthsky #medsky #fitnesssky #gymsky

Speaker: Henk Goorhuis, MD, FACEP

Helpful, helpful, thank you!

Interesting. Is conflating health and happiness helpful? Correlating them, surely ...

This is pretty good PR! Can I ask why now if the video is 7 years old?

Fascinating! How exactly is AI going to help capturing data from kids who have difficulty being scanned in the MRI?

It's time to rebrand vaccines Biohacking? A wellness choice? Your annual productivity boost?

Like the word vaccine comes from the Latin word for cow. We can pick another word and move on?

Getting the flu shot might not be as effective as in years past because of the strain, but it still reduces severity and hospitalizations

I don't know. Ok, great to have the obvious confirmed, and to hear a few voices that see this as an opportunity?

Great analysis of the numbers and the person.

Analysis: Christian Dubé's legacy — leaving a health-care system battered and broken Still, he did make health stats more transparent and slashed year-long wait times for surgery.

Leaving Quebec's health-care network battered and broken. Below is my analysis of Health Minister Christian Dubé's record following his surprise resignation today which caused shock waves in the province's political world: 👇

Great point!

Great use cases for AI in healthcare here. I feel like it's not even AI, or not the AI Silicon Valley hypes. It's just better software.

I'm not saying I like the result! But maybe it's not so surprising that boomers are taking priority over other generations?

Who needs the hips and knees? Like with the sexism the article unpacks (paying surgeons more for less complicated procedures on men), this is simply power at play ...

Delays in gynecological surgeries putting women’s health— and lives—at risk, doctors warn | CBC News Long wait times for gynecological surgeries are putting many Canadian women at risk, doctors say. Surgical wait times vary across the country, but a 2020 study found that a gynecologist consultation a...

This article goes into great detail about some major issues plaguing Ontario's healthcare system. It truly blows my mind that hips & knees are the priority. Early interventions are ignored for pre-cancers, so the delays mean higher costs for cancer treatment.

y'all canada health care is insane why did the dental receptionist just give me a $5 gift card cause my appt is 30+ minutes behind

So is the vaccine this year "mismatched"? The reporting was confusing on that aspect. I got the flu vaccine (along with the Covid vaccine) last week. It was a rough night! But a great night if the vaccine is matched well to the current strains ...
