DeBite, “The measles virus appears every 4 or 5 years on its head in Lebanon, because the rate of immunity declines, and parents are delaying in vaccinating their children, and the latest information issued by the World Health Organization in cooperation with UNICEF showed a decrease in the rates of routine vaccination of Lebanese children by 31%, so there is a wave of measles.” among children, and it poses a danger to children between the ages of one and two years.” And he advises all parents, that “they must re-contact with primary health care centers or with pediatricians and family doctors in order to apply the vaccination process in a proper manner in order to avoid any new wave of measles.” Which may be big.” And he added, “Several years ago, we changed the vaccination protocols in Lebanon in a way that suits our situation, so we hope that parents will quickly vaccinate their children, especially since measles vaccination protects against infection with rubella.” Al-Bizri stresses that “measles is a cruel and contagious virus, and it poses a great danger, especially if the infected children have a high temperature,” stressing that “there is a need for a very high vaccination rate among the Lebanese population to prevent the spread of the disease.” Join the “Spot Shot by Lebanon Debate” channel on YouTube now, Press here
