Six Babies Born with Measles in Canada to Unvaccinated Mothers

Six infants in Canada have been born with measles, all to mothers who were not vaccinated against the disease. Health experts highlight that newborns rely on maternal antibodies for early protection, making maternal vaccination crucial during pregnancy. The cases have raised public health concerns, prompting renewed calls for increased vaccination awareness and uptake among women of childbearing age to prevent similar incidents and protect both maternal and infant health against highly contagious diseases like measles.
