Bi-annual measles and rubella monitoring reports (2011 - 2017)

ECDC monitors measles and rubella transmission in the EU/EEA and publishes a comprehensive monitoring report twice a year. Case numbers are based on information from multiple sources, including routine surveillance data from Member States, the Early Warning and Response System, national public health websites, validated media reports, and personal communication from national authorities. Due to the nature of the data, all case numbers should be treated as preliminary.
