I don’t know about “most areas” but, yeah, I think you’re referencing the numbers provided by Alberta Medical Association’s president to the Canadian Press yesterday. Vaccination rates are why some are predicting measles will become endemic [in North America, I think] again - maybe 40 years after Canada had declared it beaten.
Duggan said the province doesn’t have a high enough vaccination rate to prevent measles from circulating - a rate that is ideally above 95 per cent. She said even in urban centres like Edmonton and Calgary the rate is only at around 70 per cent, and there are pockets of the province that are at 50 per cent or lower.
