FYI, almost the entirety of Ontario is from Mennonite and Amish communities who refuse to get vaccinated and don’t listen to public health officials. There’s only so much you can do there.
I’m much more concerned about outbreaks in public schools, for example. This map alone doesn’t tell the whole story.

Alberta can eradicate brown rats but can’t handle a little measles? Pathetic

This would be much more informative on a per capita basis.

You gotta do per-capita rates to show that Alberta is #1 with spreading preventable infectious diseases.

Effect of Mexican Mennonite community who are mostly anti-vaxxers and often travel between southern Ontario and Mexico. Including the Mexico states in this picture might tell the tale better.

Is the US still testing for this?

Do one for measles deaths. By age group.

I don’t think we can trust the numbers coming out of the CDC with captain brainworm at the helm

The fact this isn’t per capita is fucking insane lmao, Alberta is better at being Texas than Texas itself

South Carolina would be much darker if it was a current picture vs 2025.

Chart proving refugees are the issue, not RFK….

The scale of this map is a bit difficult to read. Makes it look like there were little to no cases in the USA, but the cdc website list out thousands for 2025 spread out across most states.
Also, the number of measles cases in South Carolina just 1 month in 2026 is a bit shocking (500-600). It’s about to shatter that Ontario number by the end of the year. Looking at the numbers on the cdc website, seems like Texas has stopped reporting? Couldn’t tell if that was a real number or just them deciding not to report anymore.

So much for that world class health system eh?

I feel like a time series of outbreak circles would be very useful for this since the coloring makes it difficult to differentiate between American states and [Canada’s outbreak](https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4g8d39gdr0o) (also due to decreased vaccination rates) peaked in 2025 while the US’s is currently still spreading.
For example, the epicenter of the current US outbreak, the update of South Carolina, has more cases per capita (~100/week for a population of a couple million) than Ontario did at the peak there (~200/week for a population of 14 million, although it was concentrated within certain communities). [This site](https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4g8d39gdr0o)shows cumulative cases as well as recent cases within different areas and helped me to understand this more.
