About the Episode

Mike Gibbs is a former communications staffer with Public Health Ontario. He experienced Toronto’s SARS outbreak first hand and has worked on pandemic planning in public health offices across the country.  He has been highly critical of the current Ford government’s handling of COVID-19 communications and is author of a Twitter account (@Mikeggibbs) that provides Covid-19 policy opinion from an informed perspective. We invited him on to the podcast this week to share his expertise about how we got where we are today, and what is needed to get through this pandemic.
