1/7 Heroes walk among us – some #StayHomeSaveLives, despite disrupted schedules, daily inconveniences, challenges and losses of all manner, shape and size. #TeamCanada #COVID19 #StayAtHome #StrongerTogether
2/7 Some are #EssentialWorkers who are out on our roads, in our shops, pharmacies and hospitals, despite being away from their families and worrying about the risk of #COVID19 exposure. #ThankaTrucker #PharmacistsOnTheFrontline 👨‍⚕️👩‍⚕️🚛🚒🚜
3/7 Some are #HealthcareHeroes who have rushed in to help. This is one family’s story with a poem to a hero Mom who is a nurse, recently reassigned to care for #COVID19 patients in a nursing home in Nova Scotia. #OlderAdults #ProtecttheVulnerable

1/6 #COVID19 key concerns in 🇨🇦: As we continue to make progress to #SlowtheSpread of COVID-19, we are experiencing bumps in the road that remind us we can’t let down our guard. #PhysicalDistancing remains vitally important. #StayAtHome
2/6 We’ve got to act quickly to address weak points before the virus is introduced to other vulnerable settings. We can’t let the virus jump ahead of us again. #ProtecttheVulnerable #PlanktheCurve #CrushtheCurve
3/6 We learned a hard lesson when the virus was introduced to long term care settings. Cases quickly accelerated into large outbreaks with devastating consequences that are now a driving force behind the #epidemiology of #COVID19 in 🇨🇦. #ProtecttheVulnerable #OlderAdults
