"Days later, on April 14, Dr. Joffe’s contract expired, leaving #Alberta without a chief medical officer of health as #measles hit all regions of the province. He said during a university presentation the following month that “a complete failure of leadership at all levels” and public complacency contributed to Alberta’s measles outbreak. Both of these issues are touched on in the internal communications."

Records offer clearest picture yet of where cases popped up and how the province and one community impeded some health officials’ efforts to stop the spread

When I was in public health, I spoke with the very helpful people at CDC often to clarify and answer questions about vaccines. What's happening now is...dangerous.
