Global Pandemic and the future state

The WHO lifted the global pandemic, hooray. NOW WHAT? The COVID virus is still here, most people got a vaccine or 2 or 5... its estimated this gives us some immunity, not complete prodection. with new varients coming I expect my vaccination will give a 1% protection. I'm anticipating an annual vaccine that will have some if not total protection. We will survive and carry on.

Another year older and no wiser

what a year! 2020 the pandemic year, the last year of Drumpf! a year to forget, yet we will never forget. Each new year brings new hope. 2021 provides a promise of a better future; a vaccine (last count 3 new vaccines are approved), a new president, a better economy, social events and human contact. And perhaps travel! I long for the freedom to socialize and have interaction with people: family, friends and strangers. Humans are social beings, we have built our culture our socities on gathering and sharing. We are greater than just the sum of our indivdual families. We become stronger with others. Also, we can become distructive as a group. Our nature is to exploit and destroy as much as it is to build and create. Our future and that of those that follow us in this timeline will depend on how we emerge from this pandemic, this historical event. let us all rejoice and seek to make the future more suitable, more compassionite and more enjoyable. Make this year the year you reach out and explore and share your experience and your love.

Change is the Future

Just as the passage of time, change happens and continues, weither we like it or not; The future is change, either through entropy or actively -time advances and things change. 

Once we thought (as a species) that the stars were fixed in the firmament of the sky and mountains were unmovable. The passage of time has changed these assumptions.

Even our earth's orbit is now known to be less fixed and always changing through time and space. 

Technology is always advancing, trying to maintain a status quo in the fast and advancing pace of IT would not be standing still it would be falling backwards. As technology improves what is unchanged become antiquated, dated and irrelevant. 

Healthcare is another field which always looks to the future. New medications, treatments and interventions extend lives, increases patient safety and eliminated diseases. We have seen this with vaccines, insulin, and AIDS treatment, what was a death sentence is now a chronic condition treatable and survivable. 

We talk about disruption technology in healthcare, yet the pace of change continues and advances. What is viewed as disruption is only the ongoing advancements that occur and must continue to happen to make the future a better place.

A New Year a new beginning

Each and every day we wake with the full potential that 24 hours gives us. What we do with that time is ultimately up to us. You can choose to wake up at 5 am, take the dog out go for a walk; or you can sleep in, spending your precious time asleep. It’s your choice. You can choose to work hard and achieve your set goals or simply coast along.

Each year is much the same, we wake up January 1st with the full potential of a year. Some of us, unfortunately, will be unable to fulfill that potential. Since Jan 1st, a mere 31 days, I have attended 6 funerals, and several passings of which I couldn't attend the funeral. It's been a long winter and a tough one for many who are elderly or ill. Young or old we can not avoid the call that takes us out of this world, and depending on your beliefs, into the next.

A sobering thought as we enter February. This next year is a new beginning for us at Clarity Health Inc. Since 2001, we have built and deployed Clarity Healthcare Solutions, our inpatient assessment tools at some major hospitals in Ontario. We are small yet we have provided excellent services and products.

Last fall we were approached and agreed to sell Clarity Healthcare Solutions to VitalHub (TSXV:VHI) a publicly traded Canadian Health software company. We will still be providing our consulting and support services to all our current and future clients. This isn't an end this is a beginning. Hoping all of you our clients, consultants, colleagues, vendors and friends a successful and prosperous NEW YEAR. Don't sleep through it
