Amid increasing measles cases in New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria and Western Australia, the Australian Centre for Disease Control has issued a reminder to get vaccinated. 

The Victorian Department of Health recently issued a health alert following a new measles case in Victoria. The alert includes an up-to-date list of public exposure sites in Victoria. 

Head to our immunisation reference pages MVEC: Measles for more information about measles disease, epidemiology and prevention. 

MVEC acknowledges the traditional owners of the lands on which we live, work and educate. We pay our respects to their Elders, past, present and emerging.
We are committed to honouring Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ unique cultural and spiritual relationships to the land, waters and seas.
