Bangladesh Measles Crisis Deepens
Description
Bangladesh is reeling from a catastrophic measles outbreak that has claimed over 500 children’s lives, with tens of thousands infected—mostly kids under five. Once a success story in measles elimination, the country’s vaccination efforts collapsed after a government change, leaving children defenseless. Overwhelmed hospitals, malnourished children, and desperate parents highlight the human toll. Now, a massive vaccination push and emergency medical support are underway, but critics demand faster action and a state of emergency. The world’s silence leaves Bangladesh fighting this crisis alone—a chilling warning about the fragility of public health progress.
