Measles update

Posted on:

There have been 9 cases of measles in north-west London this week, including one in Hillingdon. All those affected are unvaccinated school-age children.

Measles is very contagious and can be dangerous, especially if someone in your household is pregnant. If your child has not been vaccinated, please contact your practice to book an appointment with the nurse as soon as possible.
