COVID-19’s spending impact is best illustrated by PHAC's 2021-22 plan—the 1st time the agency had to account for the pandemic. Actual 2019-20 program spending was nearly $779.5-million. Forecast spending for 2020-21 was $15.3-billion (though actual spending ended up being lower).

.@CarpAdvocacy's Anthony Quinn told me that before COVID-19, the fight to improve long-term care was typically a private one pursued by residents and their families. Once that resident died, the fight died with them. It was COVID-19 that turned that fight into a public one.

Both @GOVofNUNAVUT and @GNWTNewsroom have been without NIHB funding agreements since March. The federal program funds health services for Inuit and First Nations Peoples. Although it's Ottawa's program, the ministers say they use territorial dollars to cover what Ottawa won't pay

Coming to you from a new role: I'm now covering health for @TheHillTimes. One my first stories: Nunavut & Northwest Territories have been without an agreement for Non-Insured Health Benefits (which helps fund health services for First Nations and Inuit Peoples) since March.

UHN's Dr. @bradwouters gets 2-3 emails per week from U.S. researchers looking for jobs in Canada. He said, "...existing scientists in the United States are rethinking that their future looks like. That’s primarily based on the fact that science is under threat" in the U.S.
