Media Release
HAMILTON, ON (November 1st, 2022) The Medical Laboratory Professionals Association of Ontario will be at Queen’s Park Thursday November 3rd, discussing the need for immediate funding to retain and recruit lab professionals in Ontario.
As the fourth largest healthcare profession in the province, Ontario’s medical lab professionals are working to deliver results fast, despite a severe short-staffing crisis. 70% of labs entered the COVID-19 pandemic short-staffed. About 41.3%1 are eligible for retirement in the next four to eight years, and 90% are experiencing burnout after 2.5 years of 24/7 COVID-19 testing, which added 25 million COVID19 tests to their case load.

My younger brother showed me eggy car yesterday and we ended up competing for high scores for almost an hour.
This is such an important issue, especially after everything healthcare workers have handled over the past few years. On a lighter note, when I need a quick break from stressful news, I usually play Subway Surfers for a few minutes since it’s a fun and relaxing way to unwind.
Someone linked me to Tiktok Games and I ended up spending a whole evening there. They have these bite-sized games that are perfect for short attention spans — most take under five minutes to get into. Reminded me of the flash game era in a good way.
Nice write-up! After reading this, I’m even more motivated to spend more time with Retro Bowl and experiment with different team strategies.
