A World Health Organisation (WHO) agency has revoked Canada’s measles-free status following more than a year of cases reported in multiple provinces and territories.
A “large, multi-jurisdictional outbreak of measles” since late last year led the Pan American Health Organisation (PAHO) to withdraw Canada’s measles elimination status, according to a Nov. 10 announcement from the the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC).
