Durham health officials warn of measles exposure linked to Pearson Airport

On November 8, Durham public health officials said a confirmed measles case in an unvaccinated child who had traveled internationally prompted them to warn anyone who was on the Ethiopian Airlines flight, at Toronto Pearson Airport or in the Lakeridge Health Ajax-Pickering emergency department to watch for symptoms. The case was first identified on November 3 when the child sought care at the Ajax emergency department; after confirmation, officials began tracing contacts and identified the airport as a public exposure site. The department’s investigation continues as they contact known contacts and advise the public on monitoring and vaccination recommendations.
