The US Is Not Doing Better at Handling Measles Than Canada

The Real Truth About Measles

Why do some people think that the US is doing better at handling measles than Canada?

RFK, Jr is doing a heck of a job as Health Secretary.

That mostly comes from RFK, Jr, who believes he is doing a great job handling our measles outbreaks.

The US Is Not Doing Better at Handling Measles Than Canada

Of course, though, he isn’t.

Canada has done a much better job at handling measles than the United States.

While it is true that Canada has had more cases on a per capita basis, it also very true that Canada got their larger outbreaks under control much quicker than the United States.

In fact, there has only been six new measles cases in Canada in the past two months!

And that compares to 1,490 new cases in the United States during the same time period…

That means the United States had 248 times more measles cases as Canada, and per-capita, 30 times the new-case incidence.

If RFK, Jr was doing such a good job, then why do we continue to see new and bigger measles outbreaks and even more deaths?

So when you look at these charts, does it look like Secretary RFK, Jr is handling the measles outbreaks in the United States better than Canada?

Not surprisingly, public health officials in Mexico have also done a better job than RFK, Jr at getting their much larger measles outbreak under control.

No, it certainly doesn’t!
