Measles Exposure Alert in Toronto | Vancouver News
Description
Toronto’s health officials are sounding the alarm over potential measles exposure linked to international travel — if you were in the Scarborough Health Network ER on June 28 between 7 AM and 1:30 PM, or the kids’ outpatient clinic on June 30 from 8 AM to 3 PM, or Markington Family Care on June 29 from 9 AM to 3 PM, you might be at risk. Measles is highly contagious and can linger in the air and on surfaces for hours. Watch for fever, cough, runny nose, red eyes, and rash — monitor yourself until July 21. Parents of unvaccinated babies under one should call 311 immediately. This year, Toronto has seen five confirmed cases — a stark reminder that even with modern medicine, these viruses can resurface.
