Description

Health Minister receiving advice on allowing babies to receive measles vaccine as the outbreak spreads.

New Zealand has two new Auckland cases bringing the total to 13. 

A national immunisation week starts on Monday - to help bring it in under control. 

Minister Simeon Brown told Francesca Rudkin there is the potential that if children are immunised earlier than 12 months, their longer term immunity wouldn't be as good.
