Coming out of my twitter hiatus for a brief moment to congratulate The Royal College and Susan Moffatt-Bruce on this excellent decision. Many of our leaders in more important roles could learn a lesson about not pointlessly deferring necessary decisions until the very last minute.

In response to the third wave of the pandemic, The Royal College has made the decision to cancel Internal Medicine oral exams & prioritize health, safety & staffing at a critical time. Kudos to commendable leadership from the Royal College. And kudos to us: officially internists!!

3rd year of #MedSchool through Schitt's Creek #MedTwitter:

To fight Zoom fatigue, give people the freedom to turn their cameras off. New experiment: videos off reduces exhaustion and boosts engagement—especially for women and newcomers. Cameras off doesn't reflect disengagement. It helps to prevent burnout and promote attention.

We are a province divided - lack of clear leadership and ongoing protesting and fighting - sadly i think all my healthcare colleagues will need to hunker down in the trenches and pray we make it through - please look out for your trenchmates - reinforcements are not coming…..

I'm honestly numb. I'm so personally disappointed & frustrated watching our elected officials abandon the public health good of our province for... really... what? Make no mistake. We're on our own.

F***! #SK still getting POUNDED by Delta. 506 cases today = NEW 1-day record. Aug 30, 111 in hospital. Today, *225* in hospital. No end in sight. Would be a GREAT TIME for elected officials Government of Saskatchewan to DO SOMETHING to help us avoid medical triage! RT if you agree. #COVID19SK

.Scott Moe, it was more than disheartening to hear you talk today about how doctors should *start* publicly educating and talking to media to counter pandemic misinformation, as if we haven’t been doing this kind of advocacy from the start. A thread (with receipts):

I take pride in my ability to work with families through the worst times of their lives. It requires honesty & trust. This week has been so demoralizing. It’s so hard to connect with people who are in the ICU because they fundamentally distrust the foundations of medicine.

Dear Scott Moe, Attached, please find screenshots of my response to your characterization of the Royal Society of Canada's report on Canadian mortality during COVID-19 as "the most egregious misinformation of the pandemic". The text follows in this thread.

Hannah Rector, Lindenwood Gymnastics alum (‘17) has been diagnosed with breast cancer at 26 💔. Her insurance won’t cover a majority of her treatment and she’s a resident physician(!). I’m heartbroken for her diagnosis and infuriated at our healthcare system. Her Venmo in 4th pic

Making POCUS resources for our U of Saskatchewan core IM program. Focus on saving and exporting scans for future review to facilitate ongoing learning and QA. Thanks to our IM R2 Maria Merlano for the camera work! #IMPOCUS USask PGME @OlszynskiP @sask_sonic Amanda Oro

Today we signed out our last US device as part of our U of Saskatchewan UGME Clerkship #POCUS program to one of our clerks. This is the first time all of our Saskatoon devices have been out in action since we started this initiative! @OlszynskiP USaskUS @USaskMedDean Usask UndergradMedEd

Thank you to our IM program and our Department of Medicine for our new US machine for use on our clinical teaching unit! This will help greatly in patient care and ongoing education in our #IMPOCUS program!

Nutrition 101 in 25 sentences. Trust me, you didn't take this class in school:

Sanctum does very important work for some of Saskatoon’s most marginalized and underserved people. Proud of my friend Benjamin Leis for stepping up!

Great end to the first of hopefully many POCUS rotations for our IM and GIM programs. Great crew.
