Canterbury District Health Board issues measles warning to parents
Parents are being warned their children could be exposed to measles in the school holidays after an outbreak of the infectious disease.
There have been five confirmed cases - including a baby and two people who had to be hospitalised - over the past week in Queenstown, Wanaka, Canterbury, and Nelson.
Medical professionals have warned of a high possibility of more cases, and urged those with symptoms to call, rather than visit, their doctors.
