Canada has just lost measles elimination status. The U.S. will undoubtedly follow shortly.
Elimination means that there is no continuous spreading of measles within the country for a year or longer.
Canada and the U.S. have blown it, and it’s largely the fault of the anti-vaccination movement.

Like all of Dalhousie, I’m excited to be back in class, if anxious about being ready.
I’m also angry & tired.
I’m angry with administrators who should’ve apologized & resigned.
But I’m tired b/c the real problem isn’t the dipshits in charge.
It’s a structure that allows dipshits to be in charge

Senate Leaders & Deans need to speak out to protect Dal’s mission. Sr Admin & Board have abandoned their responsibilities:
Their lockout started this;
Their refusal to bargain in good faith prolonged this;
Their incompetence threatens Dalhousie.
Demand they sign a deal and resign. #KeepDalStrong

Is Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive? Because the amount of resistance to addressing his being trafficked gives the distinct impression that either he is dead or what they have done to him is so unspeakable that they cannot afford for him to be freed, seen, or spoken with.
