"Since measles cases were first reported in Alberta this spring, I had hoped this moment would not come," Adriana LaGrange, the Minister of Primary and Preventative Health Services said in an emailed statement. "I am saddened to share that we have had our first death from measles in the province."

I see that our official public health strategy for dealing with measles is hoping that measles won’t act like measles.

It's just a damn shame we've let the anti vax take the power and make the decisions. I fear there's more to come, innocent little humans that have no skin in whatever sick and twisted shit that endlessly comes out of this government. This government hates children, and stands for cruelty.
