Measles is highly infectious. 1 person can infect 15 other unvaccinated people on average. ❗ Being vaccinated helps protect you, and others who can't be vaccinated such as young and unborn babies. πŸ‘Ά

Immune Thrombo-cyto-pe-nia (ITP) is a rare autoimmune condition characterized by a low platelet count. Platelets are cells in the blood that help stop bleeding and a decrease in platelets can cause easy bruising, bleeding gums, and internal bleeding. #itp #itpawareness #pdsa

If your child's not vaccinated, they’re not protected from illnesses like measles and whooping cough. Are your child's vaccines up to date? ➑️ nhs.uk/childhoodvaccinations
