A person with a confirmed case of measles was at a Spruce Grove clinic and pharmacy earlier this week.

An infectious measles case was at the Tri Wellness MC Centre, a walk-in clinic on Tri Leisure Way in Spruce Grove, on Monday between 10:45 a.m. and 2 p.m., according to a news release from health officials.

An exposure warning was also issued for Mint Pharmacy, which is located next to the Tri Wellness centre, for the same time frame.

Alberta sees measles upswing with dozens of cases reported over the weekend
By Arielle O'Shea
Posted Mar 11, 2026 4:48 pm.

Alberta is facing another sharp rise in measles infections, with dozens of new cases reported in recent days.

There were 36 new infections reported over the weekend, pushing the provincial total to more than 150 so far this year.

Alberta Health says most of the new infections were detected in the South Zone, though cases were also confirmed in Edmonton, Calgary, and the North Zone. The province continues to grapple with one of the largest measles outbreaks in Canada, second only to Manitoba.

Pediatric infectious disease physician Dr. Karina Top says the overwhelming majority of infections are occurring in people who have not been immunized.

“Over 90 per cent of the cases reported in 2026 have been unvaccinated,” she says. “We’re seeing a lot of cases in children who are old enough to be vaccinated but are not vaccinated.”​...

Alberta measles outbreak appears to be fading with no known active cases
By Jon Tupper
Jul 9, 2026 | 10:17 AM

EDMONTON — Alberta’s measles outbreak appears to be fading, with no new cases, no known contagious cases and no hospitalizations reported in the province.

Provincial data updated Tuesday show all 317 confirmed measles cases reported in Alberta this year are no longer considered communicable.

No patients with confirmed measles were in hospital as of Monday, including intensive care units.

However, the province cautions the absence of known active cases does not mean measles is no longer circulating in Alberta.

Health officials say people with undiagnosed measles may still be in the community, including those who have not sought medical attention or been reported to public health authorities.

The province says measles transmission is occurring in Alberta and has affected people of all ages, including infants, children and adults.

Most confirmed cases have involved children younger than five and those between five and 17 who were not immunized.

Cases have been reported in every health zone, with the largest number in the South Zone, where 140 cases have been confirmed this year.

The North Zone has reported 93 cases, followed by Edmonton with 43, Central Zone with 30 and Calgary with 11.​..
