March 2 2025-Does Ontario Need A Seniors’ Advocate & Have You Had Your Shingles Shot?
What is the role of a Seniors’ Advocate and does Ontario need one? Those questions were at the heart of CARP’s AGM this past weekend and I chatted with BC Seniors’ Advocate Dan Levitt after he delivered a keynote speech.
Have you had your shingles shots? Over 90,000 Canadians aged 50 and older develop this painful condition every year, even though the vaccine is readily available. Less than 40% of eligible Canadians have received even one dose, despite the fact that Shingles can lead to lasting complications, including chronic nerve pain and vision loss. I talked with Dr. Vivien Brown about why you should get yours.
