Number of lab-confirmed measles cases rises to 46 in Armenia
As of 10am Friday, the number of laboratory-confirmed measles cases has reached 46 in Armenia.
Fifteen of them have been hospitalized, 17 have not been hospitalized, and 14 have been discharged from hospitals, the Ministry of Health informs.
These patients are in moderate condition.
Out of the 46 infected, 43 are not vaccinated against measles, and three are vaccinated with one dose.
According to the Armenian national vaccination schedule, measles vaccinations are intended for children 1 and 4-6 years old.
The Ministry of Health urges parents of such children who have not received scheduled vaccinations against measles to contact their registered polyclinic and have their kids vaccinated against measles.
At the same time, persons who have been in contact with measles patients but do not have a two-dose vaccination against measles are also subject to vaccination.
