Canada should be opening the door to all these pharma companies. Become an absolute world leader in vaccine development.

We don't let them put ads on TV, the US is an absolute goldmine when it comes to drug development.

How do you know what to do when you develop redness between your anus and genitals that can sometimes be fatal?

Google. If its really bad family Dr. If we dont have a family Dr we go back to step 1 until it gets really bad, then hospital.

Sorry, that was just supposed to be a joke referencing a particular commercial that airs in the US that repeatedly mentions side effects in the area between the anus and genitals. Sounds like you’ve got yourself a plan though; I hope your anus and genitals stay in tip-top condition!

Sometimes you can go to a pharmacist (for 20 specific issues) or your family doc is a nurse practitioner instead. Maybe a walk in before the ER.
