With measles making a resurgence, efforts are under way to educate doctors who’ve never seen it in person

Family doctor Danielle Smith has treated dozens of patients with itchy, painful rashes at her B.C. practice, but the blotchy red dots she saw earlier this year puzzled her. The rash was concentrated on the patient’s face and spread out as it moved down the body, almost as if a red bucket of paint had been poured over the person’s head.Dr. Smith asked her colleague and fellow physician Karina Zeidler for help. The patient was asked a series of questions, including about their travel history. Blood work was ordered. A urine sample was collected. The person’s nose was swabbed.
A motorcyclist was killed in a collision with a pickup truck in Kingston on Saturday, according to city police.
