Experts warn the NHS is ‘failing’ to make sure children get the measles vaccine, with MPs even calling for an ‘urgent overhaul’ of the MMR system. These concerns follow an outbreak in Enfield, where more than 60 children caught measles and 15 were hospitalised. Only 64% of children in Enfield are vaccinated, compared to 69% in Malawi and 62% in Afghanistan - all far below the 95% the World Health Organisation recommends. #vaccine #outbreak #measles #MMR #london
