In an urgent appeal to protect the health and safety of Ontario’s students, education workers, and families, Ontario School Safety (OSS) has issued an open letter asking the Ontario Provincial Government for immediate action to prevent the spread of measles. This critical request comes in the wake of concerning measles infection reports from multiple public health units, emphasizing the need for swift governmental response to safeguard public health within educational environments.

We are writing to you on behalf of Ontario School Safety (OSS), a grassroots organization made up of parents and caregivers, epidemiologists, engineers, psychologists, education workers, and other concerned community members. OSS is dedicated to promoting the health and well-being of students, education workers, and families across our province and is urgently bringing to your attention the escalating threat of measles outbreaks in Ontario.

We said in our last update that the clean air movement is growing and since then we have seen the needle continue to move in the right direction. Take a look through our November update to learn the ways in which OSS and all of your support is making a difference in improving indoor air quality in classrooms.
