Italy's measles vaccination cover in
2018 was up 1.38% to 93.2% but fell short of the 95% target
needed to eliminate the disease, the health ministry said
Monday.
The ministry said the data "raise concerns".
"The failure to reach the objective of 95% continues to raise
concern, despite the rising trend registered," he said.
Polio cover was up but four regions - Friuli Venezia Giulia,
Marche, Sicily and Veneto - were below the target.
