Parents urged to prioritise vaccine catch-ups as measles cases stay high
Derby Telegraph
|August 01, 2025
HEALTH chiefs are urging parents to prioritise vaccine catch-up appointments for their children during the summer holidays as figures show continued high levels of measles.

There are also fears that cases could surge once the new school term begins in September.
The latest monthly UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) data on measles show there have been 145 cases since the last report on July 3. This brings the total since January 1 to 674 cases.
It comes amid a global surge in measles over the last year.
The UKHSA is concerned travel during the summer holidays could lead to rising cases in England when the new school term begins.
Measles is highly infectious and can lead to serious complications.
People with the infection have a number of cold and flu-like symptoms, with a rash appearing a few days later.
