Measles: resurgence of cases last year… and fears for the Olympics. 117 cases were reported last year, a sharp increase compared to the previous year.
The virus had in fact circulated very little over the past three years. But as the Olympic Games approach, population flows raise fears of several imports of the virus into France. The toll is expected to further rise compared to 2023. The rise in measles cases is accelerating, in terms of outbreaks and the number of cases. In Rhône and Drôme, the Regional Health Agency is already reporting 59 cases.
