Italian measles vaccine
coverage fell from 91% in 2010 to 85% in 2016 but rose 7% to 92%
last year, according to a new report from the EU and the OECD.
Between may 2017 and May 2018, the report said, there were
more than 3,000 measles cases in Europe of which the majority
were in Italy (4,032), Greece (2,752), France (2,436) and
Romania (2,127).
These are mostly non-immunized people: children too young for
vaccination or adults who did not get vaccinated, the report
said.
