Public Health Director has 'small concern' over cases in community
There’s been a dip in the number of children getting both doses of the MMR vaccine on the Isle of Man.
Data shows 78 per cent of three and four-year-olds have had their second jab; 92 per cent of one-year-olds have had the first dose.
Concerns have been raised in the UK about a possible measles outbreak given the low uptake of the vaccine there.
Professor Hugo Van Woerden is the director of public health:
