Bangladesh’s measles outbreak has killed more than 1,100 people since March, around 94% of them children younger than five, according to an India Global Review report published on October 19. The country is now racing to vaccinate 3.4 million children.
The report links the outbreak to political turmoil, disruption of health services and declining immunisation coverage. It describes a reversal for a country previously recognised for vaccination progress, with millions of children left vulnerable to a preventable disease.
The reported death toll and age breakdown have not been independently verified by BharatVox. The report’s summary does not identify the underlying health-authority figures or specify how many deaths were laboratory-confirmed measles cases.
