It’s not easy wearing blue

A paramedic’s job is not easy. They work long, sleepless shifts, are exposed to viral infections, hepatitis, and tuberculosis, and commonly deal with angry and sometimes violent emergency victims. But they wear this uniform because they are Ontario’s frontline health care workers-in-blue who risk their own safety to help those in dire need.
