Pediatric measles cases by residence status in Tel Aviv, Israel.

CONCLUSION: While the two measles outbreaks differed in overall morbidity, in both outbreaks CWLR presented with a more severe clinical presentation and were less likely to be vaccinated (in part due to their younger age) than CC. The geographically concentration of CWLR was distinct from that of the CC in both outbreaks. Healthcare professionals should promote vaccination uptake and increase parents' awareness to early signs of the disease. PMID: 32690425 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
