New Brunswick Public Health knew early on that Covid-19 infection causes long term illness, but decided not to tell anyone.
popnb.substack.com
In Nov 2022 we exposed the fact that public health officials in *all* provinces and territories had been receiving a staggering quantity of high quality information on the prevalence and severity of Long Covid since as early as July 2020...
...and didn't tell us.

Hey @ipaccanada.bsky.social, are you done Unmasking the Future yet? Or do you plan on dithering for a while longer before pretending you knew all along and giving yourselves more awards?
I realize it's embarrassing to admit you screwed up, but it's only going to get worse the more you delay.

Yesterday, history happened at the UN: For the first time hundreds of orgs signed a global pledge declaring that healthy indoor air is a human right.
Healthy indoor air is a key tool for preventing pandemics, building climate resilience, and increasing health equity. We need it everywhere!
