| 1625325091042267137 | @COVIDimmunityTF @MoriartyLab @CMAJ @CanadasLifeline The surveillance wouldn't include, of course, anyone who contracts COVID while donating blood. Canadian Blood Services should require K/N95s (even masks would help a little) to protect donors, staff and volunteers from airborne viruses. | 10 |
