Measles incidence in Canada

[Guest guest]

Hi!

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how common outbreaks of

measles, mumps and rubella are in Canada and/or North America. We

are not planning to have our children vaccinated with MMR and would,

in fact, like them to contract these diseases while they are still

young. But is that likely to happen in such a highly vaccinated

population? Also, what are the implications for them if they do not

contract these diseases and are exposed to them as adults? Thanks

for your help.
