Measles outbreak in Sindh claims lives of 70 children
By M Waqar Bhatti
March 04, 2022
KARACHI: Despite spending billions of rupees on the world’s largest measles and rubella vaccination campaign in Sindh in November last year, dozens of children have died due to measles, while hundreds of cases of the highly contagious vaccine-preventable disease have been reported in Sindh since January 1, The News has learnt.
“Daily dozens of measles cases are being reported at various public and private hospitals throughout Sindh, and the disease has so far claimed the lives of over 60-70 children across the province in the last two months alone,” a senior paediatrician associated with the Pakistan Paediatric Association (PPA) said. Citing data from different public and private hospitals and clinics being run by paediatricians, the PPA office-bearer, who requested anonymity, claimed that so far at least 2,500 cases of measles have been reported. However, the paediatrician pointed out, these cases are just the tip of the iceberg, as most cases and the resultant deaths are not being reported by parents and healthcare professionals...
