A measles case has been confirmed in Aotearoa for the first time since 2019.
This comes as childhood immunisation rates are at some of the lowest levels in modern times.
News and Editorial Director Jessica Hopkins spoke to Vaccinologist at the University of Auckland Helen Petousois-Harris, who says it would take a “miracle” for Aotearoa to avoid a measles outbreak.
She started off the interview by asking Petousis-Harris why we should be concerned about measles.
