Bangladesh is described as facing the world's worst measles outbreak, with health commentators calling it a warning to other countries. Reports highlight how lapses in vaccination coverage can allow a highly contagious disease to resurge, and health experts are urging nations elsewhere not to become complacent about routine childhood immunisation programmes.
Why now: Health authorities and commentators are warning that declining vaccination coverage could let measles resurge in other countries too.
