A child under five years old who died after being hospitalized for measles was a Hamilton resident, public health officials say.
A spokesperson for the city’s public health agency says the child was not immunized against the virus.
“This is a profoundly tragic situation where a young child has left us too soon with their whole life ahead of them,” says Dr. Brendan Lew, Hamilton’s associate medical officer of health, in a statement Friday.
“To respect and protect the privacy of the child and their loved ones, we will not be speaking to further details of this individual case.”
Hamilton Public Health did not confirm when the child died.
