This company is a food supplier for the government school lunch programs. An article I just read had even more deplorable description of the facility than what was reported in the nightly news. Absolutely disgusting the descriptions I read about the condition the facility has been in while it is processing this stuff as food that goes across the entire country.
Avatar f tn 5 earthquake yesterday in Ontario and a tornado also in Ontario which pretty much devestated a smaller town there. Everything has come at once. I do not think Wisconsin is on a fault line, I believe it was the shocks coming from us. Then again, I can't remember ever having an earthquake in that part of our country...very strange. Crazy crazy weather happening. I hadn't heard there may be a connection to natural gas...interesting. I will have to read up on it.

Avatar m tn While it was originally believed that children were immune to the virus, there are now cases involving children — at least one in Alberta, and 17 in Ontario, including one involving a baby boy. Dawn Bowdish, the Canada Research Chair in Aging and Immunity, says that we now know children are infected at the same rate as adults, but that they don’t necessarily show the symptoms. “When they do show the symptoms, they’re very mild compared to adult symptoms,” she says.

It's not due to exercise, because she never leaves her apartment and she sleeps over 12 hours per day.

1132848 tn?1345643890 ve been trying to research how much injectibles cost in Ontario (before applying the bill to your Insurance).

Avatar f tn Well, I got vaccinated for Hep A for free and I'm in Ontario. They give it free to persons with Hep C. I didn't need Hep B because I have immune antibodies for it but I would have gotten that as well for free. I think you should call your local Public Health office Communicable Disease department and talk to them.

Avatar f tn My adult daughter has been diagnosed with Chiari and lives in Ottawa. Is there a good neurologist and/or neurosurgeon in the Ottawa area that anyone would recommend?

Avatar f tn Hi. I live in Ontario, Canada. I had unprotected sex with a girl who I did not know 3 months ago and I started getting symptoms like white tongue, swollen lymph node on neck, fever. And I have been having body aches since then. Today I had a PCR HIV test result which came back negative from Public Health Ontario, but I have some questions about that.
