The CSA’s revised standard on respirators should help us all breathe easier
By The CSA Group — a not-for-profit standards organization — released for review a new draft standard on the “Selection, Use, and Care of Respirators” (CSA Z94.4:25) for workplaces, specifically including health care.

An Indigenous-led campus will transform health care
Imagine it’s 2045. Across Canada, every community — from Moosonee and Moose Factory to Mississauga — has a health workforce that truly reflects its people. Education and workforce planning are not separate systems but part of one continuous circle: co-designed, co-governed and co-accountable with community. In this future, reconciliation is no longer a policy priority — it is the fabric of how our systems operate. This vision is not unreachable.

Airborne pathogens: controlling words won’t control transmission
WHO has proposed new terminology for “pathogens that transmit through the air”. 1 WHO Global technical consultation report on proposed terminology for pathogens that transmit through the air. The stated rationale is that “[d]uring the pandemic, the terms ‘airborne’, ‘airborne transmission’, ‘droplets’ and ‘aerosols’ were used in different ways, by different stakeholders, which contributed to confusion in communicating how this pathogen was transmitted”.

The Trophoblast Compartment Helps Maintain Embryonic Pluripotency and Delays Differentiation towards Cardiomyocytes
Abstract : Normal developmental progression relies on close interactions between the embryonic and extraembryonic lineages in the pre- and peri-gastrulation stage conceptus. For example, mouse epiblast-derived FGF and NODAL signals are required to maintain a stem-like state in trophoblast cells of the extraembryonic ectoderm, while visceral endoderm signals are pivotal to pattern the anterior region of the epiblast.
Masks Work. Distorting Science to Dispute the Evidence Doesn't
Masks work. Especially respirator-style N95 masks. Amid an ongoing pandemic and outbreaks of influenza and RSV caused by airborne viruses, arguing over the virus-blocking power of masks remains one of the COVID era’s signature follies. Disconcertingly, despite decades of evidence of their efficacy, some of the disagreement comes from a few in the medical field itself, misusing science and endangering lives.
