On the Omicron variant, our CEO @DorisGrinspun says: "What is clear is that is transmits a lot faster. Even if a small percentage get it, I think our ICUs will be full. #onpoli#COVID19
On the Ontario government's sluggish response to #COVID19, our CEO @DorisGrinspun says: "If feels a bit like last Christmas. It was too little, too late. I'm afraid that the same will happen after these holidays. Am I concerned? Yes, I am very concerned." #onpoli
" I don't think that people really understand why vaccine justice is not charity. We would not have these mutations if the great majority of people were vaccinated," says our CEO @DorisGrinspun. #onpoli#COVID19

For the younger nursing generation, our CEO @DorisGrinspun says: "Will it be risky this next year or two? Yes, but you will have so much opportunity. "

#NoSpaceForHate
Our CEO @DorisGrinspun
Why are we discussing this? It's a matter of human rights for people to be who they are. It's a right enshrined in our constitution. That's what drove us to hold this event.

Our CEO @DorisGrinspun will lead a dynamic discussion on the third wave of COVID-19 and advise on the necessary next steps.
"We'll move from wave three to wave four unless Premier @fordnation restricts the movement of people," our CEO @DorisGrinspun says.
She also urges the premier to fully engage primary care and home care nurses to accelerate the #COVID19Vaccine rollout. We need all hands on deck.
"This was and is preventable.
What we need is strong public health measures that are reinforced every single day and vaccination, vaccination, vaccination!" - RNAO CEO @DorisGrinspun
