 The text discusses the importance of vaccination in preventing measles outbreaks. It highlights that despite efforts to increase vaccination rates, there are still concerns about vaccine safety and misinformation spreading quickly online. Experts warn that if vaccination rates do not improve, measles outbreaks could become more frequent and severe. In Wales, a measles outbreak has already occurred, with over 1,000 cases reported since November 2012. Health experts stress that vaccination is crucial in protecting children from serious diseases like measles, which can cause brain damage or death. They urge parents to get their children vaccinated and to seek accurate information from trusted sources.
