I remember when the case studies on this started to emerge. Pretty awesome to see more robust data.
GOOD NEWS! A groundbreaking study in MORE THAN 1,000 people reveals that cancer patients who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine within 100 days of starting immunotherapy lived dramatically LONGER than those who didn’t. In some cases, their survival rate was DOUBLED.

It seems unbearably cruel that we have to go from those #bluejays who nearly won it all, to whatever this year's #mapleleafs are...🫠

Justified. He was so good 😭
Yoshinobu Yamamoto is the 2025 World Series MVP 🏆
He joins Hideki Matsui (2009) as the only Japanese-born winners of the award.

Morning after...very sore arm for the covid shot. Nothing for flu shot. General body aches. Worse than normal so far but nothing unmanageable.
Anyone had their flu and Covid-19 booster recently? I had them today and I've been told the side effects are worse than normal and I fear for my Sunday.

Now all chances rest on the Leafs.
LOL.

I am relieved there is no #BlueJays game tonight. Toronto needs to rest.
And if they do win it...well I was here for the Raptors win in 2019 and - chaos will ensue. Fun chaos, but chaos. We need our energy.

One of the best things about the #BlueJays doing well in the World Series is that absolutely everyone I know seems to be completely ignoring American politics and whatever the dysfunctional government down south is up to. Nobody cares, it's beautiful.

I'm quite glad I went to that cold April #bluejays game* so at least I can say I saw them in the season they...
*It sucked. They were boring and bad 😆
