  • Supporting Those Impacted by COVID-19
    Supporting those impacted by COVID-19 Many of you have reached out to us either looking for suggestions or offering ideas on how our TFS community can support those impacted by COVID-19. We are indeed a strong community and we know that it is essential, as citizens, that we act for the common good, most especially in situations such as this one. Please see below a list of organizations that you might want to support, specifically considering the shortage of personal protective equipment and other items. Of the many worthy institutions making an impact, we have put together a list of those with which we have partnered over the years as part of our citizenship program or where our alumni and parents are engaged. We will post this list online at tfs.ca and sr.tfs.ca/coronavirus. To quote President John F. Kennedy, from his inaugural speech, “Ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country.” Or province or city. And, of course, for the world at large. Thank you!

Dr. Brown presented alarming trends mere days ago, which Mr. Baber would have been briefed on. Over the last four weeks, there has been a 72 per cent increase in hospitalizations and a 61 per cent increase in ICU patients. Further, more than half of the provincial ICUs are full or only have one or two beds left. Dr. Brown notes that if we stay on our current trajectory, there will be more than 1,000 COVID-19 patients in ICU by early February. That would be catastrophic. COVID patients in hospital: • Outbreaks have closed beds in key centres like Trillium Health Partners, William Osler Health System and Greater Niagara General. • Key hospitals experiencing significant increases in capacity pressures (as of January 3, 2021): • Trillium Health Partners – 96% total ICU occupancy • Windsor Regional Hospital – 90.2% total ICU occupancy • Humber River Hospital – 97.8% total ICU occupancy • Halton Healthcare Services – 93.8% total ICU occupancy • Markham Stouffville Hospital – 120% total ICU occupancy • Mackenzie Health – 94.7% Total ICU occupancy As you may know, Mr. Baber represents a Toronto riding.
