On Thursday, Regional Public Health (RPH) Wellington issued information sheets about the highly-contagious disease to early childhood centres and schools.

While there have been no reported measles cases in Wellington over the past year, RPH said the upcoming school holiday period – April 13 to 28 – meant families could be exposed. Read more here.

RPH was advising anyone who has not been vaccinated against measles to make an appointment for the jab at their local medical centre. The vaccination is free. Click here to find out everything you need to know about the outbreak.

Anyone who suspects they may have measles should stay away from work, school or public places to help prevent putting others at risk. They should also isolate themselves from family members who are not fully immunised.

kia ora,
My name is Anne Fitzpatrick. I had polio as a toddler in Methven in the early 1950's.

Last year I registered as a polio survivor with Polio NZ. We know there are about 9,000 polio survivors still alive in NZ. We want to get everyone we can registered so that we can build a case with Ministry of Health for getting some needs assessment and services for people who are now experiencing Late Effects of Polio (LEoP, also known as post polio syndrome- PPS).

So if you had polio or know someone who had polio please encourage them to register with Polio NZ. www.polio.org.nz...

I also joined Polio NZ as a member $17.50 per annum!) and have became active in the organisation.

As someone who is experiencing significant deterioration in my polio affected leg, and other new issues that are difficult to know the cause of, I have learnt an enormous amount about LEoP and the myriad of ways that it can impact on the polio survivor either at the time of the virus or much later in life.

So if you had polio, or are a family member, carer or clinician, or just care and want to know more, please consider joining Polio NZ.
