2 new travel-related cases of measles confirmed in Metro Vancouver [Video]

Health officials in British Columbia say two new travel-related cases of measles have been confirmed in the Lower Mainland, bringing the number of those recently infected to four.

Fraser Health says both infected people travelled in the same group from South Korea as another person whose measles infection was identified earlier this week

These cases are unrelated to an infection last month involving a resident of the Vancouver Coastal Health region who was also infected after a trip to Southeast Asia.

Officials have also expanded a list of locations where members of the public might have been exposed, including Vancouver’s airport, a supermarket in Burnaby and a restaurant in Coquitlam.
