TORONTO - Ontario's chief medical officer says recent cases of mumps and measles should serve as reminders for everyone to get their vaccine shots.
Health officials say two people from Quebec were sick with infectious measles recently while at Canada's Wonderland and a Simcoe resort.
Meanwhile, Toronto Public Health says it's still investigating a July outbreak of the mumps at Ki, an upscale sushi restaurant in the city's financial district.
Symptoms of measles include rash, high fever and watery eyes. Those infected with the mumps experience fever, headache and swelling of glands in the mouth and neck, among other symptoms.
Dr. Arlene King says two doses of the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine are enough to protect someone from both infectious viruses.
Anyone who wants to receive the free vaccine should see their doctor.
