#BCCDC reports six new #measles cases in northern B.C. on Sep 8th https://energeticcity.ca/2025/09/08/bccdc-reports-six-new-measles-cases-in-northern-b-c/ “According to the BC Centre for Disease Control’s (BCCDC) latest case count update, eight new cases of the virus have been confirmed in the province, bringing the total for 2025 up from 242 on Thursday, September 4th to 250 as of Monday, September 8th.

Public Health Agency of Canada (#PHAC) is the equivalent government agency in #Canada. http://www.phac-aspc.gc.ca/ Some provinces have centres for infectious disease, such as #BC's Centre for Disease Control (#BCCDC): https://www.bccdc.ca/
And btw, the agency in the USA is not actually CDC, but CDCP - Center for Disease Control and Prevention
Focussed on more effective efforts to prevent chronic diseases, like cancer and heart disease, prevent injuries and respond to public health emergencies and infectious disease outbreaks, the Public Health Agency of Canada works closely with provinces and territories to keep Canadians healthy and help reduce pressures on the health care system.
