If you’re a student who is underrepresented in medicine then please consider registering for IGNITE 2021! It is a conference that helps break down barriers to med applications. Love my team! 🙌🏽❤️

The past 6 months I have been reflecting a lot on the CaRMS process and how dramatically it affects all med students. In trying to process my thoughts and emotions, I started writing things down & with Match Day this week, I decided to share. Good luck to all my fellow 2021s!

The lineups in Scarborough are a reminder that racialized & low-income communities want vaccines. They just lack access because of an inequitable vaccine rollout. ✖️ Vaccine hesitant ✅ Vaccine confident + limited access Reallocate vaccines to hotspots or people will die.

As I struggled to deal with the impact of COVID on my family members in India, I got delayed by a day for submitting my reviews for a conference & I got a message from a senior reviewer with the blurb below. My humble request to everyone - pls don't say this to anyone ever! [1/n]

The tragic #COVID19 death of 13 year old Emily Viegas is on every politician who didn’t support evidence-based science, #PaidSickDays & access to vaccines in hotspots.
