SAINT JOHN, N.B.—A measles outbreak in southern New Brunswick has spread to a second high school. “The fact that they’re all directly linked is reassuring, in the sense that we know how everybody contracted measles,” Russell said in an interview Saturday. The cab company operates 68 vehicles, and health officials don’t know which one was used by the infected person. Late last week, U.S. health officials reported 971 measles cases so far this year, the highest tally in 27 years. Health officials in New Brunswick say they need to count 40 consecutive days without new cases before they can consider the current outbreak over.
