Ontario's measles outbreak is at ~4x the province's case total from the decade spanning 2013–2023.
It would be quite a shame if parents were having a hard time getting their kids vaccinated, and something I think people should know about.

Hi Bluesky! I'm working on a Toronto Star piece and looking for Ontario parents and primary care providers concerned about how hard it is for children to get routine vaccines, whether due to appointment availability, system barriers, etc.

Dougie should have given pharmacists the ability to provide routine vaccines to every Ontarian - not just pricy shingles & pneumonia that OHIP doesn’t cover
And that was how most people without MDs, including immigrants got vaccinated.
But they needed public health nurses to do that. Which was cheaper than paying MDs. Convenient too
But no…And now they barely have any clinics at all
Parents are either ignorant to the risks or they're monsters.
School buses and portables are an acute risk, those spaces aren't remotely safe without respirators.
