HSE Confirms MidWest Measles Outbreak Is Continuing To Worsen

The HSE has confirmed there are now 28 cases of measles confirmed in the current outbreak in the MidWest.

It’s now four months since the first case was detected and it’s continuing to worsen – one case is in Clare, one each in Dublin and Galway and the majority are in the Limerick City area.

It’s also believed some detections of measles in the South East may be linked to the current MidWest outbreak.
