We report an ongoing measles outbreak in Italy, with over 4,400 cases reported in 20 Regions from January to August 2017. Median age was 27 years, 88% of the cases were unvaccinated. The highest incidence was in infants below one year of age and 7% of cases occurred among healthcare workers. Three deaths occurred and two cases of encephalitis were reported. Wide immunity gaps and nosocomial transmission are major challenges to measles elimination in Italy.
我们报告了意大利正在发生的麻疹疫情，2017年1月至8月期间，20个地区报告了4400多例病例。中位年龄为27岁，88%的病例未接种疫苗。发病率最高的是一岁以下婴儿，7%的病例发生在医护人员中。有3人死亡，报告了2例脑炎病例。广泛的免疫差距和医院内传播是意大利消除麻疹面临的主要挑战。
