#Immunization
The real risk appears to lie with pockets of low vaccination coverage, regardless of immigration status — whether due to vaccine refusal/hesitancy, delayed immunization, or waning immunity.

“Our UNRWA health teams in #Gaza are supporting the joint @unicef.org, UNRWA and @who.int catch-up immunization campaign to vaccinate tens of thousands of children who missed out on lifesaving vaccines.

We are stronger together.”

I worked as a public health nurse for 17 years, we tried very hard to keep immunization rates up, but misinformation and disinformation has been winning the battle & here we are… Measles Elimination Status in 🇨🇦 GONE.

We need better leadership & it sure isn’t coming from provincial governments.
And just like that, we lose our measles elimination status after 27 years. Three decades of work, gone.

Here's a reminder that you can get your measles vaccination as an adult if you're unsure about you immunization status!

Here in Canada it's free, and you just gotta talk to your doctor or local health unit to get it
WASHINGTON (AP) — Canada has lost its measles elimination status because of continued spread, international health experts say.

OK, you asked for it:

Answering the antivax fantasy directly.

A dystopian thought experiment — “The Great Immunization Trial.”

What if RFK Jr.’s dream RCT actually happened?

Let’s explore the consequences. 🧵

We CAN'T get people to give a shit about children being annihilated in #Gaza.

We CAN'T get people to grasp the basic science behind #immunization.

We CAN'T get people to understand why we require #immigration.

Good news!

We CAN get people to hold vigils for dead #ostriches.

also, I had my doctor give me a referral to get a measles titre and I’m still immune so that’s good. get checked if you can and re-up on that immunization if you need!

On May 27 2025, these 3 MAHA/MAGA dudes took to X to say they were no longer recommending COVID vaccination in pregnancy

This was terrible advice:

First, pregnancy is a risk factor for severe COVID-19 (discussed at www.acog.org/womens-healt...)

13/14 HELLO UCP BRAIN TRUST: "IT'S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE"

👉 Dr. Karina Top said vaccines must be made more convenient (in hospitals, pharmacies, drop-in clinics).

👉 Dr. Talbot said Alberta must commit to getting childhood immunization rates over 90% within five years.

Canadian Millennial/GenX friends, it’s time to either get your immunity tested or just get an adult MMR booster. Most of us are in a childhood immunization gap where our immunity can wane, usually in our 30s-ish, so… now, approximately. Protect yourselves.

@naheednenshi.bsky.social must ask about immunization & what new efforts will be made to boost immunization, esp in light of the New York Times report that Canada is likely to 'lose its place among the nations that have eliminated measles’

Large amount of research agrees too

1. It’s more cost effective to prevent #Covid-19 infections than to treat them

2. Immunization also prevents associated morbidity & mortality & ⬆️es productivity of the population

We need proactive evidence-based #publichealth policies in #Alberta now.
Large majority of Canadians agree that the COVID-19 vaccine should be free

“Quebec and Alberta are the only provinces charging for the COVID-19 vaccine, which has been universally free since the pandemic.”
