The resurgence of measles, described as "a no-joke disease" that can lead to severe complications and death, is increasingly attributed to declining vaccination rates among children, a situation exacerbated by the anti-vax movement. In Britain, where the U.K. Health Security Agency declared a national incident in January, 650 cases were confirmed between October 1 and the end of February, with an outbreak in the West Midlands driving the initial rise. Canada is also facing its challenges, with Montreal identified as the epicenter and British Columbia's Health Ministry reporting its first case over the weekend. This resurgence is part of a broader concern about vaccination rates and public health, highlighted by Federal Health Minister Mark Holland's emphasis on the importance of keeping up to date with vaccines, describing the COVID-19 vaccines as a "miracle of science" and warning against the consequences of neglecting vaccination. Additionally, there are claims that "a top doctor is aiding its spread," further complicating the public health crisis.
