An ICE-detained death rate of 88.9 per 100,000 would exceed the homicide rates in Tijuana (62.7 per 100,000) and Ciudad Juárez (61.1 per 100,000). Source: bit.ly/4dJWOn6

A fellow Colombian is among those who died by suicide while being held in an ICE facility💔

Getting close to 200 known killings. If you count the unrecovered survivor of the May 8 strike, the death toll is 196 people since these strikes started on September 2. If they don't recover any of today's 2 survivors, then 198. www.wola.org/2025/11/us-m...

What’s the effectiveness of these -potentially racist- measures? We allow our neighbor to the South to withdraw funding for key health services in those countries, which are essential to contain outbreaks, but don’t hesitate to ban folks from those countries?

Fred ­Kerley won the men’s 100m at the Enhanced Games, as one of the few athletes completing cleanly. His statement after winning: “Man, they need to do better than that. They need to work a little bit harder, get on that shit a little bit more.” 🙃 www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/m...

In normal times, the fact that government officials at HHS blatantly lied to the public and got caught would be a scandal of unusual size. Everyone involved in this disinformation scheme against the people of the United States should be held accountable.

Precisely. It was never about "harm reduction" or "finally listening to the evidence"

We need to get ahead of this Ebola outbreak.

The humanitarian community is fully mobilized – but the challenges are immense.

Speed, funding, access and community trust will determine whether we contain this.

Bruno Mars has 5 concerts in TO this coming week. We are attending the last one … hope him and his buddies have enough energy to get them to the end 😓

Ontario’s healthcare infrastructure is under tremendous strain as it is, and will be further stretched thin as it will likely need to offer services to the extra thousands that will visit Toronto in the Summer. Now this? Who thought this was a great, harmless idea?! 😵‍💫

In just months, Zohran Mamdani has shown what politics looks like when leaders actually try governing for ordinary people instead of donors and cable news panels. Affordable housing, childcare, transit, workers’ dignity and immigrant protection are not “radical” ideas.

This should bring great sadness to every member of the U.S. health sector workforce - especially those in public health 💔

One day they tell you they find you annoying and they don’t want to deal with you…. And the next they’re getting you flowers and telling you how grateful they are to have you in their lives. Happy Mother’s Day I guess 🌸
