It's the internet. It's Joe Rogan.

This is what you get when Conservatives are in charge. Anti science, dangerous, selfish ideology. Do a picture of where measles exist and where Conservative votes exist. I am so fed up with holding up ignorance as a virtue!

don't limit it to just measles, add polio, whopping cough and others to the mix and then compare it to voting demographics

The measles outbreak highlights the consequences of weakened public health systems and politicizing our Chief Medical Officers. When CMOHs cannot or do not act independently of the government, protecting communities—especially children—becomes far harder.

This is gobstoppingly bad. I can't believe we live in a world where people put the lives of their children on the line. 119 hospitalized is shocking. Where is Minister of Health and Keiran Moore? Ontario response is too little too late.

The religious nuts are helping either.

This is so ridiculous. Makes the case for free post secondary education. Or how about an emphasis in high school on critical thinking....a whole class for a whole year.

I have to wonder if this is a result of Doug Ford's cuts to our healthcare system.
