For those who feel #COVID19 is no big deal - I’m guessing that if you had to watch the fear in the eyes of ‘1%’ of people you’re about to intubate or watched ‘1%’ of ppl die alone or listened to ‘1%’ of loved ones cry on the phone, you would know 1% is too much... we do.

What is coming up for the next #CAEPGrandRounds ? None other than the Research Plenary! Tune in next Wednesday night! SREMI Shelley McLeod Ian Stiell Catherine Varner EM Ottawa Andrew McRae caep.ca/cpd-courses/ca…
