Suspected measles case in teenager

The government has sent out a warning following a suspected case of the virus in a teenager.

Investigations are ongoing and any close contacts at risk of contracting the disease have been identified and contacted directly.


The DHSS says it's established that the infection was probably caught overseas as there have been several outbreaks in many European countries.

Measles is a highly infectious virus to someone who is not protected against it by immunisation.
