Measles cases in Austria are increasing rapidly: What you should pay attention to now. Almost the entire previous year's level will be reached by February 2024.

An outbreak in a climbing center in Innsbruck also contributed to the current wave of infections. In North Rhine-Westphalia, 24 cases of measles have already been reported this year. That is already more than the total of 2023 with 15 cases. Children are particularly affected, as they usually have no or only inadequate vaccination protection.
