The flu is everywhere. So why aren’t Canadians getting vaccinated for viral illnesses?

Despite overwhelming research showing that flu vaccines keep people out of hospital, fewer Canadians are getting vaccinated. Trust isn’t the only factor keeping people from getting the jab.

As back‑to‑school season approaches, Canadian employers are making a mistake by mandating workers back to the office

Remote-work flexibility has supported workplace equity helped limit outbreaks of respiratory infections. Back-to-offices mandates could erase those gains, especially with lowered vaccination rates.
