Hey there, time traveller!

TORONTO – Toronto Public Health is advising of a potential measles exposure at Ripley’s Aquarium last week.
The public health unit says a person infected with measles visited the tourist attraction in downtown Toronto between 1 and 7 p.m. last Monday.
It says anyone who was at the location on April 21 should monitor for symptoms until May 12.
Measles is a highly contagious airborne disease that usually begins with a fever, cough, runny nose and red watery eyes, followed by a red blotchy rash that starts on the face and spreads to the body.
Ontario reported its highest weekly increase of measles this week since the outbreak began, with 223 new infections recorded in the province. Toronto Public Health has confirmed three cases of measles in the city so far this year.
Public health officials are urging people to ensure they are vaccinated against measles, which carries the risk of serious complications.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published May 2, 2025.
