Since late 2023, the Metropolitan City of Milan and surrounding areas (northern Italy) have been experiencing a resurgence of measles, with most cases detected starting from January 2024. During this brief period, we observed measles in travellers from endemic areas, participants in international events, vaccinees and healthcare workers. Indigenous cases have also been identified. Even though we have not yet identified large and disruptive outbreaks, strengthening surveillance and vaccination activities is pivotal to help limit the impact of measles spread.
自 2023 年末以来,米兰大都市区及周边地区(意大利北部)麻疹疫情再度出现,大多数病例于 2024 年 1 月开始被发现。在此期间,我们观察到来自流行地区的旅行者、参加国际活动的人员、疫苗接种者和医护人员都感染了麻疹。同时也发现了本土病例。尽管我们尚未发现大规模和具有破坏性的疫情,但加强监测和接种活动对于帮助控制麻疹传播的影响至关重要。
