Interesting podcast about the measles outbreaks in Alberta and Ontario. I got:
- The outbreaks are primarily among unvaccinated Mennonite communities.
- Heard immunity (thanks to vaccination) among the general population has prevented exposures from turning into infections.
- Provincial health ministries are avoiding talking about Mennonites because they want to avoid stigmatization.
- Provincial health ministries aren’t holding regular briefings for political reasons.
But it’s a podcast (and I’m too lazy to read the transcript) so maybe I got some of that stuff wrong.
Edit: Fixed the link to the transcript. Thanks @DerisionConsulting@lemmy.ca!
