The Health Ministry announced that another doctor at Ichilov Hospital in Tel Aviv has been infected with measles after treating an unvaccinated girl. "This is an exceptional incident that is currently being investigated by the hospital and the Health Ministry," the statement said. It was also noted that "the doctors are in isolation until the end of the infectious period of the disease and their condition is good. Since both are vaccinated, they have a mild form of the disease." People who were in contact with the two received preventive treatment, and at the same time, suspicion that another medical staff member was infected with the disease was ruled out. "The Health Ministry once again calls on the public to get vaccinated. Measles is a preventable disease through an effective and safe vaccine," the statement said.
