🇯🇵🦠📃 — 📰 NHK: Doctors urge caution after measles outbreak in Japan

➡️ Measles outbreaks are on the rise worldwide. Multiple cases have been confirmed in Japan since February, and doctors are warning people to be on guard against possible infections.

➡️ Earlier this week, Japan had confirmed eight cases among people who were onboard a February 24 flight from UAE to Kansai Airport in Osaka, and one case involving a man who was at the airport when the flight arrived.

➡️ Doctors say the virus is highly infectious and can cause serious — and even fatal — symptoms.

➡️ Dr. Nakano Takashi, a professor at Kawasaki Medical School, is an infectious disease expert. He says, "It may not be an exaggeration to say that measles is the most contagious of infectious diseases. It has been afflicting people since the start of humanity."
