Since the start of COVID-19, the warts in Canada’s healthcare system have been magnified in ways we’d never expect. And in the midst of all those failures, a handful of innovations are aiming to change things for the better, like this new initiative happening right here in Ontario. The University Health Network, located in the GTA, introduced the E.D. Virtual Program during COVID’s second wave. Basically, it allows patients who are not experiencing life-threatening conditions to see a practitioner without having to set foot in a hospital. Dr. Sameer Masood explains how it works in Hour 2. Over in the United Kingdom, supporters of the Royal Family are holding their breath, as Princess Kate Middleton publicly announces her battle with cancer. And while she is doing well, she is still in recovery.
