In 2010, the Provence-Alpes-C?te d?Azur region in France has been experiencing a measles outbreak with at least 310 cases among the general population, which included 28 cases among healthcare workers (9% of all reported cases). There is, however, substantial underreporting in the notification systems of cases in both populations.
