New exposure risk in Winnipeg. If you have been exposed to measles and you start having symptoms, it is important to stay home. If you don't know you were exposed, but you have a fever, stay home. Over that one thing could prevent all that. VACCINATION www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

C'est inacceptable que le lait maternisé soit aussi $$$; c'est essentiel! J'ai dû recourir à ses préparations. Malgré tous mes efforts, ma production de lait n'a jamais été suffisante pour être la seule source de lait. Je n'ose imaginer le stress des maman ici.radio-canada.ca/nouvelle/220...

Yes removing the back box on Menopause replacement therapy is good news. But doing it by misinterpreting studies is not right as it feeds misinformation in another way.

We should talk about mandatory MMR vaccination to start school and no exception other than medical one obviously.

Misinformation, antivax propaganda and lack of trust from some specific communities explain what is happening right now. Countries like Canada (and likely USA next year), should not see measles running widely. We have a safe and efficient way to prevent all this. Vaccine works!

Sad sad day for Canada This was all preventable with a simple tool. Vaccine works

We need to act now. We know where this is going. We need to stand for EDI, sex and gender research… We can’t follow our neighbor and banned words. We also need to protect our privacy and data and the one of our students and collaborators. Take a minute and sign this

Just love my new viral research earrings

Tonight at 19h around the world people will light a candle to remember Babies born sleeping, babies that were never held and those who’s Life was way to short I am 1 in 4 and our family will light a candle for our little girl we never held

New boots have arrived

This is telling my age as I used to watch Jem every Saturday morning when I was young

Too many shots are giving to kids.. Same people, let's break up MMR in three distinct shots or MMRV in 4. I do not follow the logic...

MMR/MMRV are two great vaccines with safety record. There is no reason to change to single vaccine for each. Why? 1st we don’t have such vaccines they will need to be produced 2. By separating them and spacing the administration, it will mean -more needles (no kids want that!) /1

I scored two labubu last night on pop mart! Santa gifts is done :) And shockingly I got the same twice lol so there isn’t gonna be fighting about who got which colour lol bonus point

The start of the colour season

I took Tylenol during my pregnancy and I have two healthy girls not on the spectrum Please moms out there do not feel guilty if you took Tylenol, mom to be so not suffer for nothing if you need take Tylenol and If you have a fever consult your doctor asap.

My take on yesterday announcement on Tylenol and autism (en français) ici.radio-canada.ca/ohdio/premie...

Basic science in a lab can seem abstract art but when working with community it is important to show what happens behind the curtains so they can see what we do with the samples they provides and trust that we respect those samples.

When the UofM started its work in Nairobi, something was clear to fight HIV the community must be at the center of the action. A program of peer educator was created. Peer educators are community members that are seen like leader. They get training and knowledge /1

We are living in a scary times and an amazing time for viruses and bacteria. This is the USA but Canada is not better. We need a plan to improve vaccine uptake. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

In the fight against HIV global health is essential. Canadian researchers and the University of Manitoba brought many discoveries and changes in how we prevent and provide treatment for HIV to community in a stigma free way. We need support to continue! www.cbc.ca/radio/thecur...

Canadian researchers have been leading HIV work for 40 years in Kenya. Unfortunately, in a week, 4 of our clinics will close and 3 more in Dec due to a change in PEPFAR. This will leave 40k people at risk of HIV. HIV in Kenya is under control. www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

À friend: I Hope you have a great bday Day Me: I just got out of menopause specialized GYN and got prescribed hormones Not feeling old at all! lol 😂

From me to me on my bday :)

The list of bad news continues this morning : 7 more cases of measles, which could all have been prevented if the vaccination rate were higher... ici.radio-canada.ca/nouvelle/219...

Yesterday some PHAC employed got a notice of termination. Just in WPG at least 2 directors and 4 research scientists got the letter. At a time that Canada should invest in PH and research we will be loosing capacity for research and fight infectious diseases. Not a great day

Left or right nobody should be killed because of their political idea in a country like the USA.

Consider signing the Voice for Vaccines petition www.change.org/p/protect-ou...

Thank you Mr President for speaking up about the dangers of eliminating vaccines in Florida. Thanks for clearly saying vaccines works and that people not getting vaccinated endanger others. This is PH 101 and thank you for saying it loudly

RFK took the most trusted agency in PH and made it a joke. You are not restoring its focus on infectious diseases, you are promoting pseudoscience and an anti-vaccine agenda. You are hurting the health of Americans and people globally. This is what you are doing.

Florida welcomes back to school measles, whooping cough, chicken pox and other infectious diseases. It forgets PH and prevention principles. Kids will get sick, immunocompromised kids will be at really high risk; parents will have to take tons of days off with sick kids at home.

In the last 8 months we saw the leader of research and public health going down by cutting funding, pushing pseudoscience and loosing their experts. Canada was well positioned to take this lead and attract people but I failed Instead Europe and Asia have massively increase $$$.1

Avec la rentrée, j’ai une pensée pour tous les jeunes. Pour certains d’entre eux, c’est le retour dans un environnement où ils sont la cible d’autres jeunes. C’est dur. J’en sais quelque chose. J’ai été une de ces jeunes et ça laisse des séquelles à long terme. 1

Honest question, why are they re-doing Harry Potter. I feel that they could have decided to explore the world differently. New students, the raise of a new vilain Magic world starting to be at risk-war between muggle and witch… I mean there were possibilities

School starts in two weeks. Hockey starts on Monday. Summer is over… This is fall 😭

La rentrée s'en vient, certains petits commenceront la garderie, dans la liste des items à préparer, n'oubliez pas de vous assurer que vos enfants soient à jour avec leur vaccination. Les cas de rougeoles ont explosés dans les derniers mois, la vaccination va les protéger

Travelling within Canada is ridiculously expensive.

Here some facts

A big reason for the lack of trust in vaccines is the lies spread by RFK Jr. et al. Now that they are in power, it looks like their lies were true. But a lie is a lie. mRNA vaccines saved millions of lives, and the potential of this technology is huge geneticliteracyproject.org/2025/08/13/v...

First non smoky morning in a while in Winnipeg. Nice to be able to open up the windows for a little bit

Scientists, medical doctors, nurses we all need to stand up and fight against misinformation, lack of trust in science and PH. We and universities and hospitals needs to see it as part of our services and teaching duties. This js becoming essential.

We need strong Public Health and research right now. Canada needs to protect itself and fill the gap left by the USA as the previous science leader. Cutting PH and research funding will leave Canada disadvantaged and put at risk Canadian health www-science-org.uml.idm.oclc.org/content/arti...

Miracles do exist!! It is 820. My kids are still asleep and I was able to enjoy my morning coffee quietly, in silence and alone. I mean this is a first in many many years!! lol

If you think that women are only the type of people baby came out of and that is it. You should seriously look around and go apologizing to your mom! So sad to see that this sort of thinking is back in the US gov in 2025

I have great students!! This week my 8year old and her friends were in a morning hockey camp. On Wednesday I brought them to the lab after the camp. My students had organized a full afternoon of experiments and fun stuff (such as pouring water on dry ice:) I am now the cool mom

Nutrition and exercise vs vaccines? Nutrition/exercises are important for your health, not arguing with that. But they do not prevent infectious disease Vaccines DO. It is a fake debate and pseudoscience thinking to say it is one or the other All needed

This is why happen when people stop trusting science and public health and instead are fed with misinformation and pseudoscience If you or your kids are not vaccinated and expose to measles they must isolated for 21 days The easiest and safer way to prevent this: MMR vaccination
