YVR passengers may have been exposed to measles: BCCDC
Published Wednesday, July 4, 2018 2:47PM PDT
Public health officials are warning passengers who recently flew from India to Vancouver or passed through the local airport that they may have been exposed to measles.
An infectious individual is known to have taken two flights last month, first from New Delhi to Guangzhou, from Guangzhou on to Vancouver.
Those who took China Southern flights CZ 3028, which departed June 23 at 11:55 a.m., or CZ 377, which departed June 24 at 12:50 a.m., may have come in contact with the virus.
In addition, BC Centre for Disease Control said anyone who was at the Vancouver International Airport on Saturday, June 23 after 9:30 p.m. should be wary.
As some of the passengers and flight crew may have travelled on to other destinations in Canada, the BCCDC is also warning Canadian and Pacific Northwest public health officials of the case.
