Overview

Cross-sectional study analyzes measles outbreaks in India, showing low vaccination coverage and delayed reporting of cases.

Key Points

  • More than 250 measles outbreaks were reported in India from 2019 to 2023, with 89% being laboratory-confirmed.
  • Majority of outbreaks, 52.8%, originated from four states: Bihar, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh, and Gujarat.
  • Delayed outbreak reporting and lack of age and sex data underline significant gaps in current data collection methods.
  • Widespread vitamin A supplementation was administered during 56% of reported outbreaks, indicating intervention efforts.
