Ateb
Atebwyd gan Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care
I have not met with either Public Health Wales or Aneurin Bevan University Health Board regarding the current measles outbreak. However, I am regularly briefed by officials on the outbreak and the response.
I have sought and received assurance that all necessary public health actions are being undertaken by the health board and Public Health Wales.
As a government we have also directed all health boards to ensure 90% of students in every school in Wales are fully vaccinated against measles by the end of July this year. Though further action will be required to achieve measles elimination in Wales, this will be a positive first step to preventing further outbreaks.
