Canada’s Public Health Agency (PHAC) says the country’s measles outbreak, which started in October 2024, is now officially over. PHAC reports that more than 6,400 cases have been identified over the roughly two-year period.
Both outlets describe the timeline similarly, with the outbreak beginning in late 2024 and continuing for about two years before being declared over. The reporting aligns on the overall scope, including the case count cited by PHAC. While the available excerpts focus mainly on the declaration and the total number of cases, they do not provide additional details in these sources about specific public health measures, locations with the highest transmission, or follow-up steps after the outbreak ends.
Taken together, the coverage indicates PHAC has reached an end-point for outbreak status, marking a transition from active outbreak tracking to post-outbreak monitoring and continued vaccination and prevention messaging.
