We have likely entered a wave driven by the Omicron BA.5 subvariant.
Key Messages:
- The rise in hospitalizations will likely be smaller than earlier waves, but our hospitals are already very strained.

1/ Some semi-related thoughts on the current COVID wave (not wavelet):
-Still uncertainty as to how large it may get. Hospitalizations *may* rival that of wave 5. Updated models coming soon.
-As per before, this will disproportionately impact at-risk individuals/communities.

We propose granting conditional licensure to pharmacy interns who have successfully completed an AFPC-accredited program and the PEBC Part I (MCQ) until they are able to challenge the PEBC OSCE or another examination that has been approved by the Council

What my night ended up looking like: listening to the latest @OfftheRx podcast on hospital pharmacy, reading some infective endocarditis updates, and looking at evidence for weight-based ceftriaxone dosing.
So much for being out of school and relaxing on a Tuesday night. 😅

2020 is going to be a big year for #pharmacy. Minor ailment prescribing will go through our government. Moreover, other groups will incorrectly criticize our readiness to prescribe.
Our association must be stronger than ever before 💪
2020 will need everyone on board #GetLouder
Throughout the years, Ontario pharmacy has navigated the twists and turns of our healthcare system - managing business while caring for the health of our communities.

Big thank you's 👏 to Ontario's independent pharmacy owners who took the time to #GetLouder & make a government submission on the consultation supporting the advocacy work of @OntPharmacists on this important file
We achieved pharmacy industry alignment on a proposal to introduce private label Gx and remove the cap on OCT. @OntPharmacists is looking forward to the removal of red tape by @fordnation and stand ready to support.

A look back at last Friday & celebration of @UofTPharmacy students’ #graduation. A very special & memorable day for me while serving as interim Dean. It’s been an honour. I am so proud of our exceptional students, faculty and staff.
Last Friday, we celebrated the #graduation of our 1T9 #PharmD, PharmD for #Pharmacists and #PharmSci PhD & MSc students! Congratulations on everything you have accomplished!🎉 #UofTGrad19

Dear New Doc,
Never get offended when a nurse or pharmacist calls to verify a medication order just because it happened to be correct. One day it won’t be and that call will save your ass.

Fascinating talk by Jean Bourcier and Ramy Fahmy-Demian of @VotrePharmacien re a new model of #pharmacy remuneration tied to complexity of drug txt, patient and medication monitoring by #pharmacists. Lots to learn from our colleagues in Quebec #PxP2019 @CPhAAPhC @OntPharmacists
