The New Reality: Feb. 5
Description
February 5, 2022
Every year, more than 250 Canadians die waiting for a donor organ, and the logistics of getting them to those who need them is complex. On this week’s episode of The New Reality, Dawna Friesen speaks to world-renowned thoracic surgeon Dr. Shaf Keshavjee, who has developed innovative ways to streamline the process, including a world first: transporting a pair of lungs by drone over the skies of Toronto and successfully transplanting them into a patient. Plus, flooding is now Canada’s the most frequent - and expensive - natural disaster and that's expected to grow. The November floods in B.C. alone caused $7B in damage. Krista Hessey looks at what's needed to prepare our critical infrastructure for the floods of the future and what solutions are being worked on in Canada right now.
