In this episode, I discuss the process of getting a vaccine, post-vaccine effects, along with the Canadian public health guidance on what getting back to normal looks like.

I also delve a little in to a new internal job posting at NSERC and what that might mean for my work in the future.

Accelerated timelines indeed, it's vaccination day today and all I'm feeling is guilt because this government has such a hard time being specific.

This week, I'll be discussing Ontario's vaccine rollout plan, how we're seriously speeding things up, but how a lot of questions about implementation are still really up in the air.

On the show this week, kind of a mild rant about the anecdote-based and seemingly random rollout of vaccines in Ontario, especially as compared to other provinces in Canada.

On the show this week, I talk about burnout at work (which is completely new to me), the new (useless) restrictions the Ontario government has put in place, and Health Canada's authorization of the Astra-Zeneca vaccine for anybody over 18 again.

On the show this week, I discuss the reasons why pandemics travel in waves, and how clear messaging from government could really make all the difference.

This week, we're discussing vaccine hesitancy and misinformation, adapting to pandemic life a year in, and what 'normal' will eventually look like.

This week, I spend some more time talking about the process of updating my WordPress theme to keep up with the times, along with the reasons you might want to wait to update technology.

I also spend some time at the end of the episode talking about the current vaccine situation in Canada, especially as the rollout compares to our neighbours in the United States.
