Dr. Mustafa Hirji, Niagara Region’s Acting Medical Officer of Health
Niagara, Ontario – On Wednesday, October 19th, at 7:30 p.m., Dr. Mustafa Hirji, Niagara Region’s Acting Medical Officer of Health, will Speak on “ COVID-19 and its Variants: Where we are now and could be in the years ahead?” at the Niagara District Council of Women Zoom meeting.
Dr. Hirji, who has so ably explained the nature of the epidemic, the work being done by health systems to counter it, and the actions the public should take to protect ourselves and others from contacting COVID over the last almost 3 years, brings a wealth of knowledge and advice to our public forum.
As he noted recently “ COVID -19 has settled in as Canada’s new third leading cause of death. Our society is now less healthy, less equal, less prosperous, and with a health system that is less sustainable than before the epidemic.”
He went on to say, “However, there is a path for our society to do what it has done with past epidemic infections, and adapt to become less susceptible to COVID-19, and in the process become healthier , more equal , and more prosperous.”
To register for the meeting please e mail 1niagaracouncilofwomen@gmail.com
