Measles outbreak begins
Suspected and confirmed measles cases begin surging across Bangladesh, marking the start of the country's deadliest outbreak in decades.
Bangladesh's measles outbreak — the deadliest in decades — has killed at least 986 children and sickened 180,000-plus since March 2026, overwhelming Dhaka's Shishu Hospital where 101 children are admitted. Delayed vaccination campaigns after political instability created immunity gaps now driving more than 1,000 new suspected cases daily. For health systems and clinicians, the crisis underscores how malnutrition, pneumonia, and limited oxygen and ICU capacity compound measles mortality even in a treatable disease.
